Urban and rural experience

From city-centre locations to rural development, and small shops to major London offices, we’ve worked on all types of projects including nursing homes, factories, pubs, hotels and schools.

As we have such a large team, we’re adept at dealing with multiple portfolio sales – the sale of healthcare properties, for example – in tight timescales. Our expertise extends beyond commercial property law. We have solicitors in our wider team with specialisms in property development, construction, planning, rural affairs, and have specialist property litigators to draw on should they be required.

Trust us to give you the best advice – talk us through your aims and we’ll help you achieve them, advising on risks and keeping you updated every step of the way. For total transparency, our costs are also fixed and agreed from the outset.
