Overview

The office environment is constantly changing to meet the demands of the workforce. With an increased need to innovate and to provide greater flexibility, tailored amenities and sustainable solutions, it is essential that you choose real estate lawyers who genuinely understand the commercial aspects and technical complexities of your transaction.

We have advised on millions of square feet of office space across the full real estate lifecycle. Our experience covers representing UK and overseas institutional investors, asset managers, developers, banks, public bodies and corporations in their HQ relocation projects, office pre-lets, investments, disposals, developments and general corporate real estate. Drawing on the knowledge of professionals from across our many practice areas, we offer full-service support and work in partnership with you to ensure we meet your objectives.

As Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) continues to be at the forefront of business priorities, our team will work with you to ensure you are meeting your targets, advising on the regulation of office projects, environmental regulation and reporting standards and sustainable portfolios.
