Management of Urban Planning Sanctions and Fines
Legal Review of Urban Planning Status
We carry out a comprehensive review of the urban planning legality of your property, verifying licenses, permits, land classification, urban planning charges, and registry status. We identify potential risks and propose strategies for the regularization of constructions and property uses.
Legalization of Construction Works and Buildings
We manage the legalization of buildings constructed without a license in Mallorca, whenever this is possible under current regulations. We coordinate the preparation of technical reports and defend the application before the administration to help avoid sanctioning procedures.
Appeals Against Urban Planning Resolutions
We file administrative and contentious-administrative appeals against sanctions, stop-work orders, or legal restoration proceedings. If the administrative action does not meet legal requirements, we challenge it until a favorable resolution is achieved.

Frequently Asked Questions about urban planning infringements
It refers to any action carried out on a property or land without the required license or outside the parameters of the applicable urban planning regulations. This includes unauthorized constructions, unapproved land uses, or illegal extensions.
Sanctions may include financial penalties (fines proportional to the value of the construction), administrative measures (such as demolition orders or restoration requirements) and, in certain cases, even criminal liability if the infringement constitutes an offense against land-use planning regulations.
It depends on the type of land and the current urban planning regulations. If the construction is compatible with the planning framework, it may be possible to apply for legalization. Otherwise, the restoration of the land to its original state may be required.
Generally, the time limit is 1 year for minor infringements and up to 8 years for serious or very serious infringements. However, on protected or specially regulated rural land, there may be no limitation period for enforcing the restoration of the land.
You should contact a specialized urban planning lawyer as soon as possible to review the case, submit legal arguments, or file an appeal. Acting quickly can help avoid higher penalties or even a demolition order.
