Anne Waltham

Anne Waltham identifies and minimises the impact of risks or vulnerabilities in real estate transactions, ensuring that clients are made aware of any potential dangers.

She also helps clients to manage disputes commercially and cost-effectively, including by alternative dispute resolution.

Real estate litigation moves with the health of the property market. So the emphasis can range from development-related disputes through to insolvency matters. Whatever the circumstances, with over 30 years' experience in real estate litigation under her belt, Anne can provide insightful, practical and commercial advice across the whole spectrum of issues.

Highlights

Anne enjoyed analysing and getting to grips with complex rights of light issues, and working with the BPF to help the Law Commission on proposed reforms.

It was also hugely satisfying and rewarding for her to lead the fantastic team working on the Manchester Ship Canal Development and IGas protest action. She was flattered to be asked to deliver one of the prestigious Blundell Property Law lectures in 2013, along with Nicholas Dowding KC, although the actual experience was a little scary!

Anne has been listed over consecutive years in the Legal 500 "Hall of Fame" and as a "Senior Statesperson" in Chambers.
