We are highly experienced in evaluating the prospects for development and redevelopment. The matrix of issues that surround development, including tendering on sites, auction lots and private treaty and taking or granting options, all involve appraisals.
Without an appraisal which highlights the issues important to your financial strategy, you do not have a full understanding of the risks or benefits of a development site. Commercial risks lawyers do not have the planning experience needed to fully advise you. Commonly they will suggest that you seek the advice of a planning consultant. However, that consultant is not legally trained, so unless you have them working side by side, there might be a gap between them to which you will be blind. Often neither professional is held liable, as they worked within their respective disciplines, leaving you without remedy. Why take that risk when we provide practical planning law advice, being not only Solicitors, but also a legal associate of the Royal Town Planning Institute?
