    Development Services in England covers the planning and related oversight involved in bringing commercial or mixed-use projects from concept to construction. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates planning agreements, completes due diligence on site planning history, advises on planning policies and compulsory purchase implications, and coordinates with local planning authorities, statutory consultees, and developers to secure planning permission and associated approvals.

    “Emma was amazing from start to finish. She helped us exchange contracts about 10 months before the completion of our new build and was always on hand in that time if we had any questions about the process. Completion was so efficient, just woke up on the day and shortly after my phone rang to say it was done. 11/10”
