Businesses are sometimes affected by nearby building works or by the affects of a larger public scheme, for example, a new road or a city centre improvement.
In these circumstances the authority that is carrying out the work will usually be expected to compensate businesses for any loss sustained. The Beattie Partnership act for many companies both large and small in making sure they are adequately compensated.
The rules that govern the payment of compensation and the procedures for compulsory purchase are complex and professional advice is recommended to ensure a fair and reasonable settlement.
