Development

Expertise across the board on the development process

We act for developers and landowners on commercial and residential projects many of which are mixed use sites. These developments are required to provide an increasing range of elements of social and public benefit. This involves the application of different skills not only by the developer but by its advisors as well. We have expertise rarely found in any other law firm combining an understanding of the development process and the requirements and constraints of the private and not-for-profit sector.
