EXPLORE VALUATIONS Home Compulsory Purchase From the strategic to the tactical, we put you in control of compulsory purchase. One of the most challenging areas of property law and practice, compulsory purchase comes with big risks on both sides of the process. If you’re making a claim or on the receiving end of one, you’ll need real experts on your team. That’s why so many developers, solicitors, barristers and claimants turn to specialist consultants like us. We have one of the market’s largest and most respected teams with deep technical knowledge and the unique insight that comes from being part of one of the world’s biggest property companies. If you’re exercising powers to acquire land, we’ll work hard to accelerate your project, increase the probability of success and mitigate the risks of delay. If you’re affected by compulsory purchase, we’ll use all our skills to make sure you’re protected effectively. Many clients have trusted us to handle CPO for decades. They like our strategic approach, our knowledge and our success rate in securing great outcomes on both sides of the table.
