carinci Hollenbeck, LLC has expanded its Real Estate, Land Use, and Public Practices by adding Joseph DeMarco as Partner. DeMarco, a seasoned attorney and former municipal administrator, brings over two decades of experience serving public and private entities in New Jersey. As former Somerset County Counsel and administrator for Bayonne and West New York, he has overseen redevelopment and governance projects that shape local communities. He has also represented developers, investors, and businesses in land‑use transactions and regulatory compliance, giving him a unique ability to anticipate challenges, navigate local politics, and deliver practical solutions for projects of any scale.
In his new role, DeMarco will advise clients on complex real‑estate transactions, with a focus on redevelopment initiatives. He is skilled in negotiating financial and redevelopment agreements, securing zoning and planning approvals, and guiding projects through execution. “Having worked both in government and alongside private developers, I’ve seen firsthand how complex and time‑sensitive redevelopment projects can be,” DeMarco said. “Joining Scarinci Hollenbeck’s Real Estate team lets me apply that experience to help clients navigate challenges and achieve transformative projects.” Managing Partner Donald Scarinci added, “Joe is a deal maker. His hands‑on redevelopment experience, industry insight, and commitment to public service are a tremendous asset to the firm.”
The firm’s growth continues with the addition of Partner Ryan Miller and his team of three attorneys to the New York real‑estate and litigation groups, strengthening its depth in litigation, redevelopment, zoning, and land‑use matters. In the Little Falls, NJ office, two new associates joined: Jessica R. Dietz, who will work in Public Law and Education Law, and Daniel Tokarz, who will advise on civil litigation ranging from contract disputes to real‑estate litigation.
