An excellent service! People were always happy to help, and worked with us every step of the way. we were regularly updated and were very grateful for the ultimate success of the appeal.

MZA had to conduct a demanding process of negotiation with, on the one hand, the multi-disciplinary design team taking on board the complexities of legislation and on the other, the local planning authorities. MZA are thorough in all aspects of the parts of the assignments they undertakes, despite the complexities he has been able to develop good working relationships on all fronts and is productive, not least in the patient preparation of responses to difficult multi-facated queries and scrutiny.

We are utterly delighted that MZA got us sorted out when we’d previously had consent denied for an application we submitted ourselves. Yusuf is knowledgeable, efficient & pragmatic, finding solutions to suit us very well.

– Lynda Hance, Richmond Upon Thames

Yussuf and his team have on 3 occasions over the last decade assisted me with planning applications, all of which were successful and one particularly tricky. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend MZA Planning and will always return to Yussuf for any future requirements I may have.

– Sophie, Hackney

“I can only thank you and the rest of the team for your help with this successful appeal. We’ve been impressed by the quality and professionalism shown throughout. We wouldn’t have reached this outcome by ourselves”.

– Emilda Baisden, Hanwell Ealing

I would like to thank you for the valuable assistance you have provided in Development Control and Enforcement. You made a significant contribution to the work of development control at Enfield, in terms of both performance and quality of output. You dealt with all customers professionally, fairly and tactfully and worked well with colleagues and management.

– Graham Fisher, London Borough of Enfield

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.

– Peter Bygrave, Ealing
