We are looking for people who aim to go further and face the future with confidence.
Urban planning and land use management are foundational areas of economic and social development, shaping how we live, invest and plan for the future. The quality and reliability of decisions concerning land use and project development influence the competitiveness of cities, the attraction of investment, environmental sustainability, and territorial cohesion, with a direct impact on present and future generations.
In a context of increasing accountability among market participants, climate transition, technological transformation and the imperative of sustainability, planning frameworks, verification processes and ongoing urban‑planning oversight have become critical. These elements now act as differentiating and structural factors for the viability, safety and bankability of any project.
Our lawyers have gained valuable experience working with diverse stakeholders, including property developers and land management authorities. This has given them a deep understanding of the dynamics of planning and development. This unique combination of experience enables us to support our clients throughout the planning, transformation and land use processes. As such, PLMJ is recognised as a leading authority in the development and implementation of complex projects.
We work as partners to our clients, from the initial phase of defining the strategy through to the consolidation of the investment, ensuring a comprehensive, results‑oriented approach.
The success of any urban development project begins with a detailed understanding of the asset and its potential, as well as the client's objectives. From there, we identify risks, assess territorial and environmental constraints, and design the most efficient and legally robust procedural pathway to deliver the investment. Our role is to reduce uncertainty, anticipate regulatory hurdles, and create sound solutions within a regulatory framework that is constantly evolving.
We also monitor new challenges relating to urban sustainability, the regeneration and rehabilitation of consolidated areas, the construction of data centres, the energy transition, and the impact of technology on land use, while integrating ESG criteria.
We stand out for providing clear, integrated and business‑focused advice, combining technical depth with pragmatism and market awareness. We act as true strategic partners to our clients, helping deliver transformative projects with legal certainty, predictability and lasting impact.
