In handling planning legislation appeals, we advise clients on the most appropriate procedure to follow, ensuring that cases are prepared and presented thoroughly, effectively and appropriately.
We produce written representations appeals where this is appropriate to the circumstances.
We will represent our client's interests at hearings where written representations are insufficient. We act as expert witnesses at public inquiries when necessary and are able to appoint and brief planning barristers directly.
We are highly experienced in representing developers, local planning authorities and third party interests across a range of sectors. For larger development proposals, we often act for our client as part of a multi-disciplinary team, including highways consultants, ecologists, arboriculturists and architects. We often take the lead role in such situations.
