It is not uncommon for developers to inadvertently breach a provision of planning legislation resultant in unauthorised development. Under these circumstances, a local planning authority might choose to take enforcement action in order to achieve compliance.

Over the years, we have assisted our clients by addressing a range of planning enforcement issues. Solutions vary depending upon the nature of the breach in question.

However, a typical service might include representing our clients in negotiations with the local planning authority, completing forms/administration and providing resolution via submission of a planning application or lodging an appeal against a notice of enforcement.
