Site acquisition and development

All-inclusive administrative and legal support services for site developers in both the public and private sector.


Behind every successful new building lies a successfully managed process of site acquisition and development. And behind this lies a variety of legal and practical details, all requiring skilled professional execution.

Weightmans' Site Acquisition and Development team specialises in handling these details, and in helping to bring deals to a successful conclusion. Among other things, we advise on and draft heads of terms and development agreements, and help with associated construction, planning and site disposal matters and funding arrangements.

We act for a number of significant private and public sector development projects, on behalf of developers and local authorities, from high value projects in excess of £100m to smaller bespoke schemes. Our expertise extends to city-centre regeneration schemes as well as schools, colleges of further education and healthcare developments.

By consulting our team, you will benefit from our extensive experience and in-depth ability to cover the legal and administrative aspects of every transaction. Our approach is focused on gaining a full understanding of the nature of the project, identifying your key objectives and then helping you to achieve them.
