"We have used Oliver extensively to review the level of education contributions that various Local Authorities have requested.  As Oliver understands the process far better than the Local Authorities do themselves, he has consistently highlighted flaws in their methodology and secured significantly reduced levels of contributions as a result."

"Oliver managed negotiations with the County Council on our behalf and his robust evidence was successful in demonstrating that sufficient school places would be available to accommodate the children arising from our proposed development."

"Oliver has consistently reduced the originally requested education contributions.  I would strongly recommend his services."

"Oliver acted as an education expert witness for an appeal that I was also involved with in the Home Counties. Oliver was professional, extremely hard-working and thorough both in preparing his proof of evidence and when giving evidence during the inquiry. We were successful in overcoming the local authority's education reason for refusal and Oliver was fundamental to achieving this."

"Oliver has always delivered a highly professional service. In the most recent case Oliver saved a significant amount of money for my client where the Authority concerned was acting unreasonably."

"I used Oliver to argue against Council education commuted sum requests.  Oliver's professional approach and detailed knowledge and expertise has saved us a great deal of money. Highly recommended."

"We instructed Oliver to negotiate on our behalf regarding an education contribution at appeal. He saved us £316,000 in less than 6 weeks. Needless to say, we will be using him again."
