We are always live to the risk of future challenge to our client’s permissions and minimise them by ensuring Councils follow correct procedures and take account of all relevant matters whilst not taking account of irrelevant considerations. With Counsel, we advise on the robust defence of any third party challenges. We can also advise on mounting challenges to other’s decisions.
Strict adherence to legal and other procedural requirements and early engagement is critical in defence of and promoting any challenge. We are experienced in reviewing Claimants’ grounds for challenge, producing necessary affidavits, as well as acting as an expert witness at relevant Court hearings.
