Compulsory purchase compensation

Affected by an Infrastructure Project? Know Your Rights. Expert advice and representation for property owners impacted by infrastructure developments

If your property is affected by infrastructure works, such as new roads, electric lines, underground cables, pipelines, or flood alleviation schemes, you may be entitled to compensation. Often, claimants are eligible for more than initially offered, and in most cases, professional fees are covered by the infrastructure provider. Our specialist team offers no-obligation advice to help you understand your rights and secure fair compensation.

Services we offer:

We provide expert guidance across a range of infrastructure-related matters:

  • Wayleaves & Easements

    Negotiating utility rights over your land, electricity, gas, water, solar, telecoms, with terms that reflect the true impact.

  • Compulsory Purchase

    Representing your interests throughout the entire acquisition process.
