Client facing
Developer Recovery
We coordinate the audit, identify potential opportunities and manage the matter from first review through to recovery. One point of contact throughout, so you are not project-managing your own advisers.
How the service works
Surveyors and solicitors, on one instruction
Recovery work usually stalls because the technical evidence and the legal claim sit with different firms, on different timetables, answering to different people. Here they don’t.

Start with the free audit →How we work
Quiet where possible, formal where necessary
Most of what we recover is not won in a courtroom. It is recovered by establishing precisely what an agreement required, evidencing what actually happened, and putting that to the authority in a form that is difficult to leave unanswered.
That matters commercially, because you will be back in front of the same authority on the next scheme. Strategy is agreed with you before anything is sent, and you decide how far any matter goes.
It also means we will tell you when there is nothing there. Closing off the questions across a portfolio has its own value, and it costs you nothing to find out.
Start with the free audit. If there is nothing to recover, you will have lost an afternoon and paid nothing.
