Trees and Tree Preservation

Trees and Tree Preservation Orders can often cause significant problems when it comes to planning terms for development issues. The subject is covered by cases and legislation and can provide a useful tool for objectors. We work with the leading experts in respect of trees throughout the South East of England and across England and Wales. If you have any doubts, it is wise to secure good and early legal advice.

Our Tree Preservation Experience

We have regular experience of planning authorities who fail to appreciate the law applicable in respect of trees and tree preservation and we are happy to advise developers on a pro-active basis to ensure their proposals are presented in the manner most likely to succeed from the start, or during the process of confirmation, or on appeal. Even basic principles are commonly misunderstood in respect of tree preservation and can lead to unnecessary and extraordinary expense and delays. The only way to be sure of your rights and options is to seek specialist legal advice.
