LEGAL CONSULTANCY
A NEW WAY OF DOING LAW
We are a different kind of legal practice. Our sole focus is advising on planning law and policy. We help you realise your goal in gaining planning permission for large complex urban regeneration projects, strategic residential developments and major infrastructure projects. We work as part of a team to deliver a commercial outcome. There is no cookie-cutter approach. We explore the uniques of every brief to find the best solution for each individual project and client. We have non-hierarchical and flexible working arrangements which are reflected in our collaborative culture. This is a democratic workplace where everyone’s opinions matter, ideas are free-flowing and decisions are made together.
