Top 10 of 1,413 law firms for Development Agreements, Contract Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

Anna Seifert-Craggs

Tagged solicitor Anna Seifert-Craggs

Kate and Anna from RFB did an outstanding job. The stamp duty holiday was about to end, but they managed to wrangle everything into place so we made it on the last day, saving us £4000. They also noticed irregularities in some of the contracts we were being asked to sign and fought for them to be changed in our favour. We were not aware and wouldn't have noticed, so we are very grateful to have been in such good and caring hands. Communication was also excellent and timely throughout.

Gerard LeCain

Tagged solicitor Gerard LeCain

I asked Gerard to review and improve the fee agreement and NCNDA templates I was using as a consultant. His rigorous and meticolous approach, drawing on his experience as real estate and commercial lawyer, have substantialy extended my protection within these documents. A pleasure to deal with.
