Compensation
Proper Compensation for All Losses
Ensuring a fair return as a consequence of compulsory purchase or land works requires expert knowledge and, most importantly, a depth of experience. The team at JHWalter, who deal with compensation, have the benefit of having worked for both landowners and utility companies, and understand the concerns of both parties to a claim.
Established for over 200 years, JHWalter now has a team of four surveyors dealing with compensation and compulsory purchase related matters for national, regional and local corporate and private businesses throughout the East Midlands. Corporate clients include the Environment Agency and Anglian Water and other utility companies , wishing to install apparatus and/or undertake engineering operations on private land. Private clients are landowners affected by such work from other corporates as well as the Highways Agency.
JHWalter can advise on legal aspects of compulsory purchase and negotiate appropriate compensation, where circumstances dictate. If your land is going to be affected by a pipeline (e.g. oil pipes, gas pipes, water pipes) roads, controlled flooding schemes, electricity lines, fibre optics etc then you should ensure that you are properly compensated for both immediate and potential future losses.
