Compulsory Purchase Order

What is CPO all about? 
A Local Authority or the National Roads Authority can decide to acquire land for the purpose of building new roads or similar projects.  If such a project is to go ahead notices must be served on the owners of the land concerned and the compulsory purchase order system is designed a) to allow such projects to go ahead and b) to compensate the land owners for having their lands compulsorily removed or acquired.  When you are served with a
CPO notice it can feel like an attack on your property and can be a source of worry.  The important thing is to engage in the process at an early stage and to take professional advice and that is where we can help you.

We provide clear and professional advice in relaton to all aspects of the process including interpretation of legislation, communicating with valuers and the Local Authority/NRA and dealing with arbitatrion where it arises.

Contact us if you have any concerns or if you are about to be affected by a CPO.
