Martin Robeson Planning Practice

And now for something completely different

PRACTICE OUTLINE

MRPP specialise in identifying innovative solutions to complex planning issues which has established our firm as a leading central London planning consultancy.

We provide town planning consultancy advice with a particular emphasis on securing difficult to win permission using a forensic approach to problem solving.

The practice has wide-ranging experience in both larger scale commercial, retail, residential, leisure and mixed-use development and on more challenging smaller scale urban schemes across the UK.

We help to realise and maximise development potential through the planning process for both private sector and public sector clients, including landowners, developers, retail and business operators, investors and local authorities.

The practice provides a full range of town planning consultancy services ensuring effective negotiations to secure planning consents, reducing s106 obligation liabilities, preparing supporting assessments, appearing as expert witnesses at planning inquiries and providing development advocacy expertise as necessary.

The core values of MRPP ensure that we deliver work:

• of the highest quality;

• effectively and efficiently; and

• at a competitive price.
