Development agreements cover arrangements between a landowner and a developer to bring a site forward for development, typically balancing land control, timing, finance, and the delivery of infrastructure or planning permissions. A solicitor drafts, negotiates, and finalises the terms, including planning obligations, infrastructure contributions, conditions precedent, and risk allocation, and coordinates with the land registry to register the deal. They also advise on due diligence, title issues, securities, and discharge of planning conditions if needed, and liaise with planning authorities and lenders throughout the project.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

These matters hinge on complex drafting of conditions, financial mechanisms, and risk allocation, including planning obligations and infrastructure contributions under local planning regimes, development finance terms, and potential guarantees. A solicitor is responsible for ensuring enforceable, properly registered terms and robust remedies if milestones are not met, including interaction with planning authorities, lenders, and counterparties.

Tagged solicitor Ryan Bickham

Settlement Agreement. - What I thought may have been a confusing & challenging conversation regarding my settlement was anything but, Ryan Bickham guided me through the agreement pointed out in plain language the interpretation of each section. Made me aware of my rights what the Company were asking me to agree too. The whole experience was very stress free & completed in a very short period of time. My personal thanks to Ryan. & I will be using PCB Solicitors again.
