Strategic land specialist delivering concise, insightful, client-led solutions

I lead Shoosmiths’ National Strategic Land team and am head of the Sheffield office. I advise on all aspects of real estate, with a focus on high-value, large-scale greenfield and strategic land projects and large-scale disposals. I support clients through the full development lifecycle—from site assembly to sale—and also advise on retail, industrial and corporate real estate matters.

Since joining Shoosmiths, I’ve built a team known for its practical advice and inclusive approach. Clients value our ability to get deals done and offer innovative solutions. I’ve advised on the sale of land for thousands of new homes and led on major logistics and mixed-use schemes.

I take a commercial “deal driven” approach which is welcomed by clients who say I “get things done and routinely offer innovative commercial solutions” (Legal 500, 2013). I deliver a pro-active approach giving clients cutting-edge, incisive and insightful advice and deliver results that matter.
