A solicitor practises by drafting and negotiating planning agreements, reviewing title to land, and coordinating contracts with developers, funders, and counterparties. They also handle land assembly, rights of light, and potential planning appeals when decisions affect a project’s viability.

She helped us exchange contracts about 10 months before the completion of our new build and was always on hand in that time if we had any questions about the process. Completion was so efficient, just woke up on the day and shortly after my phone rang to say it was done. 11/10”

    “Sera was fantastic! She was incredibly transparent and always reachable throughout the transaction. My case was a bit complex due to multiple purchases, but Sera's expertise shone through. Even when she was away, she made sure to delegate tasks to her colleagues, ensuring no time was wasted. I've already asked her to handle my next two transactions. The fees were also great value for money.”
