Planning & Environment
Whether you are the developer/ operator, the regulator, or an interested party, disputes do arise. We work with you to identify your objectives, and the best means of achieving the desired outcome.
Appeals
In many situations, the legislation provides the developer or operator with a right of appeal to the Scottish Ministers. Continuity and accessibility of advice are paramount, so we provide a one-stop-shop combining drafting written appeals with advocacy at hearings and inquiries.
The Courts
Our aim is for clients to avoid court action. Where this cannot be achieved, we will work towards the best possible outcome.
Human Rights
Despite scepticism within public authorities, the decisions in the Heathrow Airport and Marcic sewage cases show that human rights challenges can and do succeed. Our advice focuses on the practical realities.
