Tyrrells Planning Law

Tyrrells Planning Law is a boutique legal firm that focuses on Planning and Local Government Law. Our firm was established to support developers, private certifiers, and homeowners navigating the complexities of planning, approval, and certification processes. Led by Principal David Tyrrell, we leverage a strong network of planning and environmental experts to deliver successful outcomes for our clients. With an impressive track record, we assist developers and applicants in efficiently resolving issues and achieving planning and development goals. Our firm represents a diverse clientele, from those involved in multimillion-dollar developments to family homeowners, experiencing conflicts with councils or neighbours in their local government area. We effectively resolve these matters at the Council level or, if necessary, in the Land and Environment Court of New South Wales. Our extensive knowledge and ability to work collaboratively with clients, consultants, Council officers, and opposing Counsel enables us to secure positive outcomes for most of our clients. Our practice areas include obtaining development consent from Council, addressing deemed or actual refusal of development consents and modification applications, appealing against building and other approvals under the Local Government Act 1993, and providing advice on planning and legal issues during the development assessment process. We also handle tree and hedge disputes between neighbours, acquisition or compensation for easements, and appeals against Council orders. Servicing the Central Coast, Sydney, and beyond, Tyrrells Planning Law offers pragmatic and people-focused solutions to navigate all your planning challenges successfully.
