In addition to assisting clients seeking to purchase or dispose of Jersey commercial property, either on its own or as part of M&A deals, Ogier’s property practice also frequently assists HNWIs with relocation plans, including purchasing high-end residential property on the island. Practice head Jonathan Hughes frequently handles such matters, and is also called upon for projects aiming to convert former hotels into luxury residences. Katharine Marshall acts for borrowers and lenders in real estate financing deals, while Sarah Parish acts for HNWIs in their property transactions and development projects.
