Aaron & Partners LLP‘s commercial property team in Chester is led by Emma McGlinchey, who is well-regarded for her capabilities in advising developers and occupiers on retail sector-related work. Refinancing large-scale projects and assisting with the acquisition and purchase of multi-unit portfolios are key aspects of the team’s workload. The 'fantastic' Joseph Fletcher-Hunt is a key name to note. Iwan Williams is well-versed in acquisition, sale and development cases, and has expertise advising housebuilder clients in particular. Simon Ellis retired from the team in May 2024.
