Our Planning Advice & Representation Unit advises and represents clients in relation to planning projects and all planning issues throughout England & Wales.

 

Our well-established specialist practice has successfully guided businesses of all sizes and types in a wide range of sectors through the planning permission process.

 

We offer strength in depth, combining incisive legal thinking and expertise from our planning solicitors with Chartered Town Planning insight, on the strength of years of experience at the highest level in planning authorities and in The Planning Inspectorate in Bristol.

We advise and represent clients in all aspects of the planning process, including:

  • planning applications and permissions
  • development and site appraisals
  • negotiations with council planning authorities
  • presentations at council committees
  • enforcement of planning controls and appeals against enforcement
  • appeals against refusals of consent
  • hearings and inquiries including technical advocacy
  • lawful development/use certificates
  • Section 288/289 appeals against the decisions of Planning Inspectors
  • applications for Judicial Review
  • listed buildings and conservation areas
  • green belt and countryside planning
  • changes of use
  • advice on and negotiation of s.106 agreements
  • objections by third parties
  • planning and infrastructure agreements
  • joint venture agreements subject to planning issues
  • compulsory purchase and compensation
 
 

Our planning solicitors can put your proposals onto a firm foundation and advocate your best way forward through all the stages of the planning process, from initial council negotiations to appeals against planning decisions.


We have forged close links with other professionals including architects, highways consultants, surveyors and specialist planning counsel.


We are very familiar with the demands of the planning process and are able to act within (often very tight) deadlines.

 

Our Planning Advice & Representation Unit recognises clients' need for financially disciplined, commercially aware and cost effective planning advice and representation.  For this reason we generally operate by reference to pre-agreed fixed fee pricing.


Call a planning solicitor in our Planning Advice & Representation Unit or email us a summary of your circumstances and objectives, and we will get back to you with proposed next steps and costings.


Whatever your situation, we can offer an assessment by specialists of your real planning position for a low initial outlay.


Our planning advice is a firm foundation for decision-making. Our representation in negotiations and hearings is heavyweight.

Some examples of client feedback:

"I would like you to act for me in connection with these planning applications .............. thank you once again with regards to the previous application, I am very pleased with the service provided. (Windsor)
"...I would also like to thank you for your efforts, which have been exceptional, considering the deadlines. I have been very fortunate indeed to have Humphreys & Co. on my side." (Bromley, Kent)
"We were extremely happy with the representation made. I don't thing anything else could have been done or said to change the outcome and although we have to be realistic and at the end of the day it is up to a personal interpretation of just one person, the Inspector, the day went much much better than we though prior to the hearing. So, result aside, we are most grateful for the amazing preparation on the case and the knowledge you had of all the facts involved in the case." (Central London)
