Martin Flint, Director, Flint Legal
Martin specialises in planning, environment, land compensation and land valuation law. He has practised in these areas since 1994, comprising ten years with the then Crown Solicitor’s Office and the remainder in private practice, and has gained extensive knowledge and expertise in practice and process in all the areas of his practice. If you ask him the reasons for his interest in the areas of his practice, he will tell you that scheme maps remind him fondly of kindergarten (as it was then called) and that he is less likely to be inundated with questions at social functions by people seeking free legal advice.
