Druces LLP has a residential property practice with two distinct specialisms: complex leasehold enfranchisement and Sharia-compliant real estate financing. These capabilities are key to the firm’s work for a client base of high-net worth and ultra-high-net worth individuals, family offices, and corporate clients seeking support with high-value transactions, particularly within London’s prime and super-prime markets. The practice is led by Parveen Abbas, who oversees the team’s focus on this high-value segment. The firm’s Islamic finance offering is driven by Afsor Ullah, while Michelle Goodrum is a key contact for complex leasehold enfranchisement matters and investment structuring.
