PLANNING, ZONING AND
REGENERATION
Our experienced planning team
supports you through all phases
of a development project, from
planning appraisals, applications
and agreements, to enforcement,
appeals, inquiries and challenges.
Acting regularly for both public and
private sector clients, we are familiar
with the range of factors that can
affect your strategy. This enables us
to identify and implement the most
pragmatic and commercial approach
to realising your goals quickly and
efficiently. We understand every
element of the local planning
systems, including complex
applications, compulsory acquisition,
environmental impact assessment
and enforcement.
Working with key stakeholders,
including local governments,
commercial property developers
and specialist funders, we help make
your regeneration a reality. We bring
together all those investing in longterm
benefits and have the specialist
experience to deliver the right
economic and non-economic results.
DEVELOPMENT
From land assembly to exit, our
experts get the right results for
you. Our experience of every
stage in the life of a development
programme gives us insight into
the needs and objectives of a wide
range of stakeholders. You can
enjoy timely completion, financial
return on investment and the
negotiation of robust but acceptable
leasing terms. The goal is the
best outcome for all: a successful,
marketable development.
Our lawyers can deliver the right
contractual arrangements to cater
for your funding needs and the
appropriate risk profile for your
investment or development. The
legal tools we use include forward
purchase agreements, forward
funding structures and made-to-suit
agreements for lease. We operate
closely together with our planning
and construction specialists so that
you always get the best advice.
CONSTRUCTION
We will stand by your side through
every stage of your construction
project. Our team is experienced

manner of procurement methods,

and process engineering projects.
