Many Australians tend to overlook the need of planning for death. Every year, about 40% of Australians pass away without having made any meaningful estate plans or having a will, and many of the remaining 60% have wills that are out of date. When contemplating your estate planning and financial strategies, there are legal considerations that must be made. Our experienced planning solicitor Sydney are here to assist you. Your Will should cover important matters such as how your inheritance is dispersed to your designated beneficiaries, the selection of trustees, and the designation of guardians for any minor children.

What does a planning solicitor do?

Planning and development law is distinct from other fields of law because it is tied to a societal goal. The many land uses and how they may affect societal demands in the present and the future must be understood by planners. This demands for further knowledge of social capital and the environment, as well as a respect of the local communities’ sensibilities. As a result, it is not solely a legal matter. Nevertheless, despite this restriction, we would work hard to provide positive results in this area of practise thanks to our knowledgeable team of planning solicitors in Sydney and their years of combined experience. Planning and development law covers a wide range of topics at Bick Steele, including estate planning, governmental planning, and environmental planning.

Sydney City Council’s Development Consent

Even for the most seasoned real estate investors, the development approval process may be tedious and time-consuming. We have more than 25 years of experience in real estate development, from simple remodelling to intricate, multi-million dollar projects. We enjoy good working connections with both private certifiers and regional municipalities. To start development projects, you will need this approval. This authorization can be granted either through a property development consent in Sydney, which covers a variety of activities such as:

• modifying how land is used
• Land subdivision
• constructing a temporary amusement structure and carrying out construction and building work on either private or public property (with the exception of public roads, which require a separate approval); destruction of a structure, such as a building.

Before applying for a property Development Consent in Sydney, you should talk to Council about getting a Planning Certificate, which contains important information about the property like environmental, historical, or planning restrictions. You can start working on your development right away if it has been granted approval under a Complying Development Certificate. We make sure you have legal protection to prevent cost overruns, schedule slips, and unneeded surprises. This enables you to take pleasure in the development process, achieve your desired outcome, and have the energy to repeat the process. We are familiar with the intricate planning guidelines and standards so we can evaluate the property’s full development potential in a beautiful area that will serve your objectives.
