Planning, Environment & Enforcement

We are unusual in having a specialist Planning Law team. The expertise of the team is independently recognised through its inclusion in the Legal 500 directory. 

In recognition of our expertise, we are members of the Law Society’s Planning Panel and a Legal Associate of the Royal Town Planning Institute.

Our dedicated team of planning lawyers, led by Bernadette Hillman, has a high level of legal skill and wide ranging experience to deliver sensible, commercial and practical advice to meet our clients' needs and expectations.

Our planning solicitors can assist you with all aspects of planning, including obtaining planning approvals; making planning objections; assisting you with and conducting planning appeals relating to planning permission refusals and planning enforcement notices; obtaining certificates of lawfulness; securing the removal of agricultural occupancy conditions; compulsory purchase; noise nuisance; and general advice on planning problems and how to maximise the value of your property.

We frequently represent resident's action groups in dealing with all aspects of the planning process.

We have a team of consultants with whom we work, including planners, architects, surveyors and Counsel who can assist with your planning project.
