Stacey MacNeal is a member of Barley Snyder’s Real Estate Practice Group and chairs the firm’s Land Use team. She has over 25 years of experience practicing law. She regularly represents property owners and developers in all stages of real estate acquisition, financing, operations, development, and divestment. Stacey is also a licensed title agent in Pennsylvania and Maryland.

A primary section of her practice is land use and development, as she often represents residential developers, commercial developers, business owners and homeowners in front of municipal boards in south central Pennsylvania. Her work stretches through the regions, assisting her clients in front of municipal boards in York, Lancaster, Dauphin, Adams and Cumberland counties, in addition to work beyond those borders as well.

Stacey has experience shepherding complex development through all phases, including zoning, land development, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection approvals, and PennDOT processes. She prides herself on working to find creative solutions to ensure that development proceeds in a timely manner. She also has experience in unique real estate matters such as quiet title actions and eminent domain proceedings.
