Planning appeal lawyer
Strategic guidance from project inception through to dispute resolution
At RedeMont, our planning and environment team provides trusted legal and strategic guidance throughout the development lifecycle. From shaping your development proposal and refining your development application with expert insight, through to narrowing appeal issues and briefing the right experts, we ensure your project is well-positioned for success.
Our lawyers understand the intricacies of Queensland and New South Wales’s planning frameworks and act for developers, landowners, not-for-profits, and public sector clients. If an appeal becomes necessary, we focus the issues, manage expert evidence, and present a compelling, supportable case in court proceedings including in the Planning and Environment Court.
Strategic support for planning appeals and disputes
Early legal input and development application refinement
We review your development proposal and supporting materials at an early stage, identifying areas for refinement. We engage in conferencing with barrisers and experts to ensure alignment and pre-empt objections or compliance concerns.
Assembling the right expert team
RedeMont is known for building the right team for each matter, briefing architects, visual amenity experts, economists, town planners, traffic engineers, civil engineers, noise experts, and ecologists, ensuring their evidence directly addresses the key issues in dispute.
Planning appeal and court strategy
If an appeal arises, we work with you to refine the issues in dispute and develop a clear strategy for presenting your case. We ensure the development is supported by robust and credible expert evidence and, throughout the appeal process, proactively pursue every opportunity to resolve the matter, whether through alternative dispute resolution (ADR), informal discussions, or other settlement avenues, to achieve a favourable outcome without the need for a hearing wherever possible.
Planning and Environment Court representation
We provide clear, practical advice, prepare all necessary court materials, and represent you in proceedings in the Planning and Environment Court and the Court of Appeal, including appeals, originating applications, and enforcement matters.
Risk and compliance foresight
Our lawyers help identify potential risks early and advise on strategies to proactively manage compliance, avoid delays, and support positive development outcomes. We follow relevant practice directions and court rules to progress matters efficiently and expeditiously through the court process.
