Planning Applications and Appeals

We advise on the need for planning permission and negotiating on planning conditions or obligations. We prepare and manage planning applications for major commercial, residential, institutional and mixed use schemes. We also project manage a range of planning applications and certificates of lawfulness where teams of architects, engineers and specialist consultancy advice may be required to support the development proposal.

Where appeals are necessary, our careful and considered approach maximises the prospects of success.

The types of applications and appeals include:

• Applications for Planning Permission
• Applications for Listed Building and Conservation Area Consent
• Applications for Advertisement Consent
• Applications for Certificates of Lawful Use or Development
• Requests for Reviews to Local Review Bodies
• Appeals to The Directorate for Planning and Environmental Appeals (DPEA)
• Defence of Enforcement Action
