Planning, Environmental and Land Use
Foot Anstey Planning provides expert tailored advice, whatever the nature or scale of your project, or whether you are an individual or international business. We are happy to assist you at the outset of the planning process or act as troubleshooters.
The conflicts between those seeking to utilise land for commercial or residential purposes and those seeking to safeguard the existing environment have never assumed a higher place on the political agenda. The procedures and law that try to balance those competing interests have become more and more detailed and complex. Lawyers with a specialist expertise in planning can guide and help those involved in the planning process and clients will have the best chance of success if this specialist help is obtained early on in the process.
Dealing with the Town and Country Planning system often means involving several advisors from across different professional disciplines to cover complex issues as well as difficult questions of law. Professional teamwork is crucial if a project is to be successful.
Our planning team are able to manage all aspects of a planning project effectively and can help put together and co-ordinate a team of experts from other professions if needed, to meet any clients’ particular requirements.
Advocacy is often needed at some stage of the planning process, whether for objectors or the applicant at the Planning Committee, or for any of the parties at a hearing or inquiry. The team members are skilled and experienced in this specialist field and in many cases their involvement will avoid the necessity for the use of a barrister.
