“When we put our first planning application into Warrington Borough Council it took us 1 and half years to see progress. That's when we contacted Emery planning and our case was handed over to Louise Whinnett. She was highly professional and very thorough in detailing to micro level. The way she communicated with local authority officials was commendable. Local authority official started responding after Louise took over and our planning was approved with in few weeks. We didn't think twice when we applied for our second planning application. She kept us informed as to what was happening and followed up with the local authority regularly. She knew exactly what she was doing, she would answer all our queries very patiently. And we got planning approved within 6 months. Louise did an amazing job and we would very highly recommend Louise to our friends and family. Thank you once again Louise.”

“I am writing with regards to my recent experience with Emery Planning in particular Senior Planning consultant Sarah Sands. Our architect had worked with Cheshire East Planning and got to the point of being asked to withdraw or request a refusal of our planning application. We reached out to Emery, who worked tirelessly to push our application through to a successful approval. It was Sarah’s comprehensive knowledge & experience that overturned all the 4 challenges that Cheshire East had presented to us. Sarah pulled a strong, fully armed statement of facts supported by regulations and case law that Cheshire East had no alternative but to approve our application. I would fully recommend anyone at the same crossroads of being ask to accept a refusal or withdraw an application, that they reach to Emery to fight the battle."

“I have dealt with Helen as an Emery planning consultant for around 9 years. I would guesstimate Helen has represented me on at least 8 jobs, 3 involving applications of over 125 housing units. Each application has had issues, I use the term issue lightly, issues way beyond what I could deal with myself, issues that started off as a puzzle and turned into a conundrum. The latest project involving two huge buildings on land that was designated “Area of Separation” was not easy. I now have a café, education centre, polytunnel and an agricultural building. When this was first mentioned to the planners we received a forty point list of why it had no chance of happening. What I have received in the past 9 years is exceptional and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing what you do.”

“We have consulted Gareth Salthouse of Emery Planning on numerous planning applications in recent years and would not hesitate to recommend his services. Navigating the ever-changing planning process can be taxing for even experienced developers but Gareth empathetically guides you through offering specialist advice and considered strategies. He speaks with authority and is clearly well respected by planning officers. His knowledge, composure and attention to detail are second to none and we look forward to working with him on current and future schemes”

“We have worked with Emery Planning over many years as we have expanded our small family run business. Many of the planning situations we found ourselves in were complex being situated in the Green Belt and in one case having to defend ourselves from a Compulsory Purchase Order. Their help, guidance and support has been invaluable and always yielded a positive outcome, most recently in the winning of an appeal to the Inspectorate which the LA had twice refused. I can’t recommend them highly enough.”

Sarah, It has been a pleasure to work with you so far, great recommendation from my mother-in-law.

Sarah, thank you for all your hard work in getting another positive decision over the line.

Thanks for all your hard work for us this year, your calm and consistent approach has been an important part of our appeal successes

I would like to thank the team dealing with our request for all the information and regular updates during the process.

Emery expertly managed a potentially controversial application with care and skill. Jill’s strong experience of working with the local authority and helping to put together a compelling case were instrumental in Elegy gaining this important permission.

Please thank Nick and the team this would not have been possible without him..... Legend!
