Scrivener,
If you don't mind me asking, for the folks that are in these towns that ask for proof, certifications, verifications, etc that are outside what the law states is required. What should you do as an applicant when asked to provide these items, and how should one go about doing that without coming across as a trouble maker, and prompt a denial/downgrade from the town?
For folks who are in these towns, is retaining the services of a qualified attorney the best route to take?
Also, what does the attorney do for the applicant? They obviously assist them in correctly filling out the application, but do normal attorney services extend beyond this? Has it been your experience that in these towns, you as an attorney are needed to follow-up with the chiefs to ensure that they are complying with the law/time restraints?
If someone were to retain qualified legal counsel, is there any recourse for the client if they aren't issued the license the want?
