Ashfords LLP has a solid track record in assisting public and private sector clients with a broad spectrum of commercial property work. Secured lending finance matters are a core area of instruction for the group, which is also active in cases involving the social housing, energy, health care, and waste management sectors. The 'wonderful' Robin De Wreede heads up the practice; he has extensive experience in handling major regeneration and development projects. Tim Heal assists with joint ventures and land acquisition matters; James Heath is a key name to note for secured lending cases; and Michael Gay focuses on residential and commercial development transactions. Investment issues are prominent in Simon Bailey's workload. Emma Warren departed in June 2024.
