It's more than law, it's how we live

Driven by demographic and macro-economic and societal trends, Living now sits at the heart of the real estate sector. From build to rent (BTR) to senior living, the Living sector continues to grow at pace. Projected to account for one-third of direct real estate investment by 2030, the sector is brimming with opportunity.

Lawyers in the Living sector

We recognise the many synergies across the BTR, single family rental, purpose-built student accommodation, co-living, open market housing, senior living, affordable housing and hotels asset classes and our team is structured to enable you to leverage opportunities across all of them.

Active across every asset class, our established, full-service legal team pairs technical excellence and market insight to make sure developers, investors, funders and operators have the legal support they need to grow in the Living sector.

We're on your team

We have decades of experience working on major residential, mixed use and regeneration projects. With specialist teams advising developers and operators across each of the Living asset classes and a strong track record supporting stakeholders backing these markets, you're in safe hands. Our sector focused advice from lawyers specialising in real estate, construction, planning, finance, regulatory, tax, commercial, corporate, pensions and employment matters means you will be well equipped no matter the stage of your asset's life cycle.

While the technical expertise we bring is critical to securing successful outcomes for our clients in an ever more regulated sector, for us, it's the relationships we build that set us apart. In your corner from the planning stage to asset disposal, on transactional and operational matters, we focus on delivering an experience where you know we're with you every step of the way.
