About
Provided by Eversheds Sutherland
We have one of the largest planning and infrastructure consenting teams in the UK. We have the capability and depth to handle every aspect of the consenting and compliance regime, including obtaining and amending development consent orders, advising on planning strategy for projects promoted under the Town and Country Planning Act, environmental impact assessment review, compulsory purchase orders and large scale land assembly, judicial reviews and legal challenges, complex s106 and infrastructure agreements, planning due diligence, and ongoing portfolio management.
Major strategic real estate, planning and infrastructure projects can throw up legal problems as complex and substantial as the schemes themselves. We are at the forefront of this work, and as regulations and environmental challenges continue to evolve, we help clients stay ahead of developments.
Our planning lawyers have extensive experience in the strategic, procedural, tactical and legal aspects of securing planning consent, permits or compensation for landowners and developers as rapidly as possible and in the most cost-effective manner. Our aim is to be at the forefront of new developments in property planning law, policy and practice. Our market experience includes the consenting of energy and nationally significant infrastructure projects, renewables, major regeneration schemes, town and country planning and highways. We also have a dedicated team of compulsory purchase practitioners.
