Real Estate Investors and Developers

The real estate industry demands lawyers who are well-versed in the latest market terms with a deep understanding of commercial drivers, financing structures and the latest issues in a wide range of related areas such as construction, tax and procurement. Market know-how is vitally important, as is clear, experienced specialist advice on intricate and technically complex legal issues.

Working as part of a wider project team calls for legal advisers that have a deep understanding of their clients’ assets, approach and objectives. It is our ability to bring all this together that sets our team apart.

We work across all sectors of the real estate industry on the most complex and high-profile investment and development projects, incorporating joint ventures and cross-border matters, real estate fund structuring and inward investment elements.

Our clients are among the most active, innovative and exciting players in today's real estate industry. They range from entrepreneurs and private property companies to publicly listed companies, insurance and pension providers and public bodies, based both in the UK and internationally.

In addition to advising on pure real estate issues, we draw on the wider resources of the firm to ensure that we can give you excellent advice on all important legal challenges that you face.
