Martin S. Lee Associates Ltd

And now for something completely different

Whatever you want, whether its planning permission for a proposed new construction or a change of use, or perhaps you're just having a tiresome time over something you've already done, then we can help.

Martin who heads our planning consultancy service has been in the business of planning for the past thirty years, both in Local Planning Authority and private practice. He has a breadth of experience in both planning policy, development management, planning obligations, sustainable development, renewables, enforcement and property development.

If you want to achieve your goals then we can help you, whether it's site appraisal, negotiation, formal submissions or consultant coordination.

Feel free to call or email at any time.

With our Somerset location close to the A303 we cover the entire South West. However, whether you are in Penzance or Dover, Carlisle or Southampton, as long as you're in England we can still provide the planning consultancy advice service you need, regardless of distance.
