Law firms ranked by client reviews
This area covers planning control and housing provisions affected by the Housing and Planning Act 2016, including applications for planning permission, planning appeals, enforcement, and housing-related planning measures. A solicitor in this field drafts, negotiates and submits planning applications, negotiates planning obligations (section 106 agreements) and affordable housing requirements, responds to enforcement notices, and guides clients through compulsory purchase and related compensation processes, often interacting with the Planning Inspectorate and local planning authorities.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The work involves drafting and negotiating planning obligations and conditions, reviewing or defending enforcement notices, handling planning appeals and judicial review risk, negotiating compulsory purchase orders where relevant, and coordinating with statutory bodies to progress housing and regeneration schemes. It requires understanding statutory frameworks, local plans, and the interaction between housing policy and planning control.
