What can I do for you

Alex is an associate in the planning team. He has experience of acting for landowners, local planning authorities and developers. Alex works on a broad range of large-scale development projects and has particular experience of negotiating s106 agreements and other related infrastructure agreements.

Supporting your ambitions

Alex has recently worked for the developers of Dunsfold Aerodrome, a substantial development being promoted for an initial 1,800 homes. Previous work involved the wider planning strategy and negotiating the s106 agreement. The application was called-in by the Secretary of State and Alex worked with the team during the public inquiry process. Following the inquiry, planning permission was granted by the Secretary of State, which itself became the subject of high court challenge. Alex worked as part of the team throughout this process, with the high court challenges recently having been dismissed.

The team were absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with. Amazing advice and support and a real collaborative effort with us. I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.”

“They are friendly, fast, always available and always on top of the game. I tend to judge my legal team against the other side's legal team and never doubt Mills & Reeve is the better of the two.”

“All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.”

“I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.”
