Mr. Hijazi stays updated on the latest changes in Maryland and federal laws, statutes, regulations, and industry trends in his areas of practice. He has been able to refine his knowledge and skills in a range of real estate, zoning, and construction-related matters even before he became an attorney and is able to bring zeal and a 360-degree perspective to his client's matters.
