Personal bio
I am a senior-junior barrister and a member of Landmark Chambers. Inexplicably, I have been rated as a top-tier junior for real estate litigation by both Chambers & Partners and Legal 500 for nineteen years.
I deal with just about any aspects of commercial real estate, but with an emphasis on valuation disputes. I also specialise in advising on conveyancing issues, either before or after the transaction, and I deal with recherché real estate matters, such as mines and minerals, manorial and customary rights, utility wayleaves, riparian rights and drainage. I am an experienced arbitrator but lack the disposition to be a mediator.
For laughs, I am an editor of Hill & Redman’s Law of Landlord and Tenant, a member of the editorial boards of both The Conveyancer and The Journal of Building Survey, Appraisal & Valuation, and a former member of both The Law Society’s Conveyancing and Land Law Committee and The RICS Dilapidations Steering Group. I appreciate that I need to get out more.
