Residential and commercial development

Both residential and commercial development projects can be challenging areas of the law to navigate, with plenty of factors to consider in the process. Key tasks include obtaining planning permission and avoiding pitfalls, such as being subject to clawback (overage provisions). To streamline the process and ensure all details are correctly handled, obtaining legal advice from a residential and commercial development solicitor is crucial.
