Yussuf and his team proved invaluable in helping me deal with the bureaucracy and pedantry of the planning system. In my experience gaining planning permission can be very frustrating and time consuming but MZA dealt with this on my behalf with great professionalism and patience which led to a negotiated but positive planning decision for me. I wouldn’t hesitate in using the planning services of MZA again.
I would like to thank you yet again for your exemplary service in winning our appeal. Always easy to contact and discuss any concerns even though the same questions have probably been asked time and time again. I thank you for your patience and time.
Thank you for your very useful, reliable service and for keeping me informed on a regular basis throughout the case. Your full knowledge of town planning system was very useful in achieving the satisfactory end result. I would strongly recommend your services
MZA Planning managed my comprehensive Planning Application for Westminster City Council last year. Jorge Nash, Senior Planner was excellent. He is knowledgeable, efficient and very professional. I was left very impressed with their management of my application which led to planning consent being granted. I would highly recommend this company for managing Planning Applications and I will certainly commmission them for future projects.
Thank you so much for your wise professional advice and support in helping us to object to this proposal. Your planning expertise was crucial in ensuring that our objection was properly considered, and helped us to focus more sharply on the vital aspect of material planning matters.
MZA Planning successfully presented my planning application to the Planning Inspectorate after the local planning authority had denied it. The Planning Inspectorate found in favour of the application and have declared it should be allowed. MZA Planning have been utterly brilliant. The entire organisation have been consistently and flawlessly professional throughout, have provided a steadying hand when needed and a relentless tenacity for success that would have you believe this was their own personal journey. The duration of this process extended to 18 months, throughout which MZA provided an honest, meticulous and personalised service – I can’t recommend them highly enough. In my opinion – anyone wanting planning advice would be doing themselves a disservice if they didn’t at least discuss their requirements with MZA
Just a few lines to thank you for all your help in getting me my planning permission. I found you most professional at all times and you kept me up to date of movements at all crucial times.
After many months of trying to have sensible conversations with the planning department at Hounslow, I was worn down to the point of giving up. At every opportunity Hounslow simply said NO and maintained a desire to show no common sense and almost demonstrated an appetite to simply play games because they could. It was all very depressing until one day I received a post card through my door after my third rejected planning application. The post card was from MZA. A local, professional planning consultancy that suggested that they could help. I was very sceptical but thought that it was worth paying for a brief consultation. Without sounding too dramatic, that 20 minute meeting changed everything. The team at MZA felt very confident that all of my planning applications should have been accepted first time around. I followed the advice that I received from the expert consultants to the letter and they helped me and my architect navigate through the process of appeal. Last Thursday I received the last decision, again in my favour. 100% of Hounslow’s ridiculous decisions were overturned and I plan to start the build in a few weeks. As a Chiswick based surveyor and estate agent I meet so many people that have fallen victim to the same treatment from the local authority and I plan to send them all to MZA. If you feel that your local authority is behaving more like a David Brent sketch than an elected authority, give MZA a call. They talk sense and do what they say that are going to do. Truly excellent. Thank you to the whole team.
“I was so glad when I heard our appeal was successful. A massive thank you to you and your team! I will also recommend you to my family and frinds and my local contacts”.
Great service as always!
