I am a partner in our commercial and agricultural property team, based out of our Cambridge offices. I have been with the firm since 2015 and qualified as a solicitor in September 2017. I act predominantly for a wide range of landowning clients, including individual clients, partnerships, corporate entities as well as landed estates. I am also a key part of the firm’s renewable energy team and typically undertake the following work types;

• Acting on sales and acquisitions of commercial property
• Acting for land owners and developers in promotion, option and overage agreements and conditional contracts
• Buying and selling farms and agricultural land
• Setting up development sites and assisting our company commercial team in property related aspects of mergers and acquisitions

• Acting for both developers and landowners in relation to renewable energy schemes including solar, wind, battery storage and anaerobic digestion

Recent work highlights include:

1. Acting for a renewable solar developer on a 50MW co-located solar and battery storage scheme – enough power to supply up to 16,000 homes
2. Acting on a farm sale to consortium buyers with overage provisions and a headline sale price in excess of £7.5m
3. Acting for a developer in the acquisition of a residential development site with a gross development value in excess of £10m

Delivering what you really need

My approach to each transaction is to be proactive and always contactable.  I will seek to understand my client’s priorities to help them reach their goals.

I am straight talking, friendly and approachable. Clients have recently described me as being ‘ professional, knowledgeable and extremely helpful; his response times are very fast and his advice succinct and commercial and ‘an essential and much valued part of [their] business’.
