    Planning work covers how land and buildings are used, changed or built upon, from submitting planning applications to challenging decisions. A solicitor practising planning in England acts for individuals, homeowners or community groups, and may liaise with a local planning authority, gather technical and environmental information, negotiate planning obligations, prepare and respond to objections, and handle appeals to the Planning Inspectorate if permission is refused or conditions are imposed. The work often turns on deadlines, policy compliance, and the impact on nearby land and communities.

    “I’m a branch manager for a local estate agent and I recently had a particularly challenging case that required urgent attention and swift action. Other local firms told me they couldn’t accommodate the request, but Tollers—and Mandy in particular—stepped up and handled it brilliantly. They turned the matter around and reached the point of exchange in under three weeks! I work with solicitors daily, but I have never encountered a conveyancer as proactive and efficient as Mandy and her team. If I could give 10 stars, I would! I’ll be recommending Tollers without hesitation moving forward—I’m beyond impressed! ”
