The team has specific expertise in advising our developer clients on innovative and commercial ways of overcoming challenges to proposed developments based on infringements of rights of light. This is a specialist area of law, and often the stakes are high taking into account the overall value of the project, the quantification of any delay to the development programme caused by a legal challenge, and the potential size of any damages award which may be made by the court. By getting involved at the earliest possible stage, we are proven to be extremely effective in keeping developments on track and successfully “managing away” rights of light challenges.
