Land used for farming and related agricultural industry presents specific challenges not found with other types of property. We are based in the heart of the rural community and have long-standing relationships with our farming and land-owning clients, sometimes spanning generations. We also have a high level of expertise in all matters of property law.
We can help clients who want to diversify their land use with renewable energy schemes or telecoms installations, or in the sale of land to developers. We also act for developers so we understand how to make a transaction run smoothly for the benefit of both parties.
We act for a broad range of landowners, farm businesses and agriculture related firms, and will help with all commercial transactions such as sale and purchase of farmland, farm properties and agricultural tenancies. With our deep sector knowledge, we will ensure your land’s potential is fully realised with future-proofed agreements.
