Statutory tree protection
Such is his understanding of the law in this perhaps surprisingly complex area, including the maddening interplay between tree protection under the planning and forestry Acts, that in 2024 JFL delivered a lecture on this topic at the Tree Law Conference, Lincoln’s Inn.
We are frequently instructed in relation to prosecutions for unlawful removal of protected trees, assisting both local authorities and defendants in identifying the merits of a proposed prosecution or a line of defence, advising clients and Counsel accordingly, and presenting findings and conclusions at Expert Witness level in all relevant tribunals.
