The leading set at the Planning BarChambers & Partners
Chambers & Partners states that Landmark is the “leading set at the Planning Bar for development work” and that it is “singled out for its deep roster of top-quality silks and juniors at all levels of experience” with its barristers “routinely involved in significant judicial reviews, planning inquiries and High Court actions, and routinely handle the most intricate and high-profile cases in the country”. Legal 500 says Landmark Chambers “leads the planning Bar by a good margin”, and is also recommended for its “efficient, sensible and cost-sensitive clerks”. In Planning Magazine’s annual surveys of top planning barristers Landmark QCs and juniors feature heavily in the top 10.
A team of Landmark barristers led by Christopher Lockhart-Mummery QC and David Elvin QC edits the Encyclopedia of Planning Law and Practice.
Landmark’s barristers have regularly been and are continually instructed in major infrastructure inquiries and cases of national importance for example Crossrail, High Speed 2 and Heathrow expansion.
Arsenal FC’s Emirates Stadium, The Shard, the Nelson Mandela Statue are just a few of the names that have featured in our diaries in recent years.
Our “unrivalled breadth of experience and quality at all levels” (Planning Magazine) means that we are the first port of call for all aspects of planning law in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, no matter how big or small the development.
Moreover, Landmark’s expertise in public law, property law and environmental law makes us uniquely placed to advise on the many planning cases that overlap with these areas.
