Compulsory Purchase Orders – What You Need To Know

June 9, 2009 - PRLog -- The CPO process can be confusing and Alistair Millar, partner at Tallents in Southwell explains what you need to know.

“The compulsory purchase process is made up of many different stages and it’s important to realise that the acquiring authority ideally wants to obtain your property or land by mutual agreement rather than by acquiring by compulsion.

“It is vital that you seek professional advice either from a solicitor or chartered surveyor as quickly as possible if you have received a CPO or think you may be affected by one in the near future. This advice applies to owners, leaseholders, tenants, and occupiers and also to anyone who may be affected by the work being carried out as a result of the CPO.”

Tallents has teamed up with Chartered Surveyor, Nigel Fletcher to offer its clients the best possible advice regarding the CPO process. Says Alistair,

“Nigel has over 23 years experience in dealing with this matter and also advised clients when the Newark Relief Road was built.  Different rules apply for a CPO depending on whether you are a home owner, business owner or own agricultural land, so specialist advice is vital to ensure you can claim for and receive your rightful compensation.”

In the first instance, contact Alistair at Tallents Southwell office on 01636 813411 or Nigel Fletcher on 07720 412468.
