Daniel Polden > Fladgate LLP > London, England > Lawyer Profile

I specialise in a range of commercial property work for clients based in the UK and also overseas. The matters I handle for clients include investments, developments, finance and co-ventures.

To paraphrase from Legal 500 2021; I am regarded as a “superb lawyer”. What makes me stand out within the industry is my highly commercial and entrepreneurial approach both to legal advice and to relationships. From a deal point of view, it is my creative approach that helps navigate through tricky roadblocks. From a relationship point of view, I will see potential business connections between clients and contacts and make them happen.

This brings an enormous amount of additional value to clients and, I think, colleagues.

I have worked in the world of real estate for over 36 years. My clients are based in the UK as well as overseas. Some are private families (or individuals) and others are institutions. They carry-out a range of transactions – commercial and residential; development and investment; lenders and borrowers; short-term and long term strategies; principals and their investors.

I understand my clients and their objectives and make myself available to my clients to talk about and guide them through the issues and opportunities that arise.
