Lucy qualified as a solicitor in 1995 and has practised since then at a variety of firms, both in Central London and regionally. She joined Hart Brown in 2024 as a Senior Associate in our Commercial Property Department based at our Guildford office. Lucy has 29 years’ post qualification experience in a wide variety of non-contentious property related matters, covering commercial and residential property and leasehold enfranchisement. She currently focuses on all aspects of commercial property matters – where the property itself is for commercial use or the transaction has a commercial slant to it. This includes sales, purchases, leases, re-finance, auctions, property support for corporate transactions, development related work, sales and purchases of going concerns and more miscellaneous matters, such as Licences, Deeds of Easement and Covenant and more general property advice. One of her most logistically challenging cases was the simultaneous completion of a re-write of all the leases in a block of 45 flats. Whilst one of her more interesting sales involved land at the Brooklands Race Track and the peculiarities it threw up. Lucy prides herself on giving her clients a first class, well rounded, pragmatic, efficient, accessible service and cuts through the legal jargon to communicate with her clients in the best way she can. Her clients come back time and again and invariably recommend her to others, as do the other professionals she deals with on a regular basis.

    Used the commercial property section, with Lucy Lawrenson as the dealing solicitor in charge. Case was a double, for both commercial, and domestic work. The service provided was absolutely first class, professional, and valued. A number of complications arose, and all were treated with absolute care, and dedication, all to successful conclusion. Often emails continued into late evening, so absolute nothing could be faulted, and only praise given. I would whole heartedly, recommend Lucy, of Hart Brown, for any commercial property work.

    ★★★★★ Excellent service from start to finish ★★★★★ I cannot recommend Hart Brown highly enough. They guided me through a particularly complex and challenging property transaction, involving a number of unusual legal and practical issues, but the team handled everything with exceptional attention to detail and professionalism throughout. Communication was consistently excellent — I was kept informed at every stage, questions were answered promptly and clearly, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. Despite the complexity of the matter, everyone I dealt with was friendly, approachable and genuinely helpful. A special thank you to Lucy and the whole team for their hard work, patience and meticulous attention to detail in getting the transaction successfully over the line. It was a long and complicated process, and I always felt that the details were being properly looked after. A thoroughly professional, friendly and highly recommended firm.

    Recent dealings with Hart Brown regarding a change from Leasehold to Freehold on our property were excellent and covered many aspects of the change that had not been considered before. Very good team to deal with.
