Real Estate

We are one of the largest real estate legal teams in the country, delivering integrated real estate legal services across investment, development, asset management, planning, construction and disputes. Our scale ensures you receive specialist support at the right level, at the right time, and in the locations where you operate.

Overview

Our multidisciplinary team advises on the full lifecycle of real estate activity. We work with investors, developers, funders, operators and occupiers, offering clear, commercially focused guidance that supports efficient project delivery and effective risk management.

Clients rely on our experience across investment and development, residential and mixed-use schemes, construction and engineering, environmental and planning issues, litigation and high‑volume portfolio management. This breadth means we can tailor our support to meet the specific demands of each project, ensuring practical solutions that reflect the realities of the market.

We have a strong track record across retail, logistics, offices, residential, health and education assets. That insight enhances our work in mixed‑use and regeneration environments, where layered uses, stakeholder needs and long‑term planning must be aligned from the outset. Our dedicated telecommunications practice also supports clients navigating the requirements of the telecommunications code and digital infrastructure deployment.

Sustainability is an essential consideration for every stage of the real estate lifecycle. We help you explore ESG as a driver of opportunity, from net‑zero carbon strategies and environmental compliance to sustainable planning approaches and green asset management. Our advice is designed to integrate your environmental goals with your wider commercial objectives, enabling you to build resilient assets and deliver long‑term value.
