Planning

We are regarded as one of the strongest planning sets in England and Wales. 

The planning world witnesses complex and ever-increasing change with the arrival of new legislation and guidance relating to such diverse areas as compulsory purchase, village greens, advertising regulations and climate change.

Here at Kings, we have a large and experienced team who can assist with all matters across the spectrum in both an advocacy and advisory capacity.
