“Man is born free, responsible and without excuses”. Jean Paul Sartre
Land and the activities carried out thereon are subject to a multitude of requirements in relation to the environment and land planning and development, which are becoming increasingly stricter. Such requirements determine, restrict or even prohibit the use of the land.
At Ramón y Cajal we provide comprehensive legal advice that ranges from the necessary land development and environmental due diligence prior to purchasing the land, to the construction and start-up of a project, including the negotiation of all contractual matters. We therefore assist our clients in choosing the most suitable solution from an environmental and land planning and development perspective.
Our Urban Planning and Environment team comprises lawyers with experience both in land planning and urban growth and in building refurbishments and urban regeneration. We advise on projects for the development, construction and financing of shopping centres, homes, logistics facilities, offices and hotels, and assist land owners’ consortiums (juntas de compensación), property developers and the various different levels of the public authorities responsible for land planning and development.
