Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Local knowledge and expertise, providing prompt and clear advice.’
‘I have worked with Peter Seaborn on a number of occasions and found him to be able to simplify complex planning matters and respond to queries promptly.’
‘To find that balance between detail and strategy, one needs both to make good decisions and M&R can do that. They help with the big decisions, but get down into the weeds when needed.’
‘Peter Seaborn is a very thorough solicitor and brings confidence into any team.’
‘My experience of the M&R planning team is that they are incredibly responsive, clear and precise in their advice. Supporting us across a number of clients, they are our "go to" planning laywers, and always deliver.’
‘Peter Seaborn is our lead partner and given our relationship across a number of projects is readily available, and even if tied up with inquiries or similar, always ensures we get what we need. Other team members (Howard Felstead, Caroline Bywater) are able and help to ensure timely progress.'
- 'There is a very strong overlap between planning / property matters and the planning team are very well integrated with the commercial property team.'
