Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for Permitted Use, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Permitted Use covers when a property’s current or proposed use stays within allowed categories without full planning permission, or requires only straightforward development under planning rules. A solicitor in this area checks whether an existing use is permitted, helps decide if a change of use is possible, and arranges any needed planning or permitted development rights notifications. They advise on risks, evidence, and coordination with the local planning authority to avoid breach of planning conditions. The work shapes how a property can be used for business purposes.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor reviews the current use class, tests proposed changes against the Town and Country Planning Act and the General Permitted Development Order, and identifies where planning permission, prior approvals, or limitations apply. They gather evidence, prepare and submit representations, and liaise with the local planning authority and neighbouring interests to secure or preserve the client’s intended use, including any required dispensation or conditions that may apply.

Peter Epaminondas

Tagged solicitor Peter Epaminondas

We worked with Peter on an unusually long and testing 13‑month transaction, and throughout the entire process he was consistently patient, professional, and completely focused on our best interests. He was always reachable, quick to respond, and a genuinely pleasant person to deal with. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and will happily instruct him again.

Emma King

Tagged solicitor Emma King

I have used Matthew and Matthew for previous house purchases so no hesitation in using them for my re-mortgage when it came to the end of the fixed term. More of a personal service than the online offers from the mortgage companies. Emma King and the team are professional and a pleasure to deal with. Communication was always clear and prompt. Being local to me made it easy to pop in with any documents required.

Selling a property in the UK, while living in the USA was no problem at all. BRGP and in particular Megan and Cherry were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and totally amiable. Correspondence was timely and concise and thankfully no hard to decipher solicitors jargon. They were great

Bronte Hunt

Tagged solicitor Bronte Hunt

I can’t recommend Bronte highly enough. She recently handled the conveyancing for my flat purchase at auction, which had a strict 14-day completion deadline. From the outset, Bronte was proactive, clear, and reassuring. What impressed me most was her communication. Either she got back to me personally or, if she was tied up, her assistant Alex stepped in seamlessly to keep things moving. This meant I was always fully updated and never left wondering what was happening. Despite the tight timescales and the usual auction-purchase pressures, Bronte kept everything on track, anticipated potential hurdles, and dealt with them promptly and professionally. Thanks to her diligence and organisation, we met the 14-day deadline without a hitch. If you’re looking for a conveyancing solicitor who is efficient, approachable and genuinely invested in getting the job done right, I’d absolutely recommend Bronte and her team.
