Our Service

I am a specialist in real estate investment, acting for investors and developers.

I have been with Fladgate since 1997 having joined as a trainee and developed my practice and career at the firm.

My expertise is in leading teams on large transactions and taking the stress out of the transaction for the client, making the transaction as pleasant and exciting a process as possible. Managing a multi-faceted team comprising expertise in real estate, tax, planning and construction in order to achieve results often in very tight timeframes is my speciality.

My clients include seasoned investors and developers, most of whom are high net worth individuals and family offices, who clearly have enjoyed the experience and come back for more.

I combine experience, ingenuity and not a small amount of humour to discover new angles, solve problems, and forge close relationships with my clients and their professional teams.

In my “spare time” I am a full time dad, trustee of a number of charities and active within my local community.
