Developments

We act for small and large development companies, individuals, joint ventures, occupiers and funders on a host of sites across London and the UK.

Our team has the knowledge and expertise to advise on both small and large-scale commercial and residential developments.

From project conception to conclusion, we frequently work on projects with a tight turnaround. Therefore, we offer prompt and practical advice on site acquisition, planning, plot sales and the subsequent disposal and freehold reversions to smooth a transaction’s progress.

Property professionals choose us again and again for our commercially minded, pragmatic approach. We know what’s required to get the deal done and draw on expertise from across the firm. We offer advice on construction, corporate, litigation, employment, planning and rights of light to ensure we provide a full service tailored to meet your needs.

We provide businesses and individuals with a personal and genuine alternative to the traditional City law firm.
