If a public development affects your property by taking all, part or even none of it, then you should engage the services of a Chartered Surveyor. bValued can represent you in the early stages of a compulsory purchase including at public inquiry. Also bValued can act for public authorities, who may require an expert witness to deal with objectors. Once though a compulsory purchase order has been confirmed you will be looking for a favourable settlement as regards compensation and accommodation works.

Arthur Bletchly has much relevant experience and will be pleased to act for you, even if this means representing you at Land Tribunal.
