Our team of Scottish-qualified planning lawyers has substantial experience in advising on Scottish planning law matters. We collaborate with various specialist teams across our firm to provide pragmatic, tailored advice on Scottish planning law in a range of relevant sectors.
Our Scottish planning law team has been involved in one of Scotland’s largest offshore wind farms. Our Scottish planning lawyers were at the heart of the core consenting team. We advised on strategy and led discussions with authorities in the Scottish government and in relation to the Habitats Directive. This complex project required in-depth knowledge of Scottish planning law, compulsory purchase and specialist expertise in environmental law matters.
We also work closely with our Scottish and Northern Irish real estate team on regeneration and property development projects. Our team of Scottish real estate lawyers is the largest and most experienced to be headquartered in England.
