Law firms ranked by client reviews
National Planning Practice Guidance sets out the detailed planning guidance that informs how planning decisions are made in England, alongside the National Planning Policy framework. A planning solicitor helps clients apply this guidance to planning applications and appeals, draft planning statements, and respond to local authority requirements. They advise on how guidance shapes sustainable development, housing supply, design, heritage, environmental impact assessments, and planning obligations, and they represent clients at planning committees, examinations, and in the planning appeal process.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The guidance covers procedural steps, how to interpret policy, and the interplay with the Development Plan, the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, and related instruments. A solicitor handles compliance checks, drafts representations and s106 agreements, prepares case analysis for committees or tribunals, and guides clients through appeals and refusals with reference to the guidance’s thresholds and recommended approaches.
