Simply the best planning solicitors!

Simply the best planning solicitors we have ever used! Down to earth, plain speaking and a true inspiration to all. Nicholas helped us resolve tricky planning issues with a housing development, that included historical aspects. We have used many solicitors for planning related projects, but Nicholas certainly wipes the floor with anybody we have used previously. His experience and knowledge are of the highest degree possible, pleased they are on our side and not our opposition! I can assure you that if you have any planning or development issues, the moment you instruct KS Law you are in safe hands…..

Ps, word of sound advice from a big life lesson, don't instruct an architect to fight development issues, in the long run, you will save a fortune by instructing KS Law - Fact

Professional Law Firm

I employed the services of Nicholas Kingsley Smith in order to object to a planning permission of a kitchen extension to my neighbours’ house. Even though it turned out that my neighbour has permission to construct their kitchen extension to more than the original projected surface area, I was greatly satisfied with the service provided.
