Our dedicated Compulsory Purchase expertise is made up of over 30 surveyors acting within the urban and rural environments in locations across Great Britain. The team provides comprehensive advice in this often complex property discipline. With a wealth of experience working for both scheme promoters and those affected by Development Consent Orders (DCOs) and Compulsory Purchase Orders (CPOs), we understand the issues from both perspectives.
We represent property owners and acquiring authorities, providing invaluable advice regarding compensation and site assembly.
We respond to statutory notices; submit objections; agree accommodation works; negotiate sale by agreement or claims under CPO compensation; handle claim assessment and negotiation; advise on potential loss of development value and diminution in value of retained property; on business relocation and loss of profit claims; and support the making of a CAADs (Certificate of Appropriate Alternative Development).
