Position
Heather has an excellent track record delivering pragmatic advice to developers and landowners on a comprehensive range of transactions relating to the acquisition, development, letting and disposal of commercial and residential sites. She successfully works with a client’s internal and wider professional team to proactively identify key issues and find solutions to achieve the best possible outcome for her client. A source describes Heather as “exceptionally committed and diligent, she makes deals happen whilst protecting our legal interests.”
Heather’s principal focus is acting for developers dealing with site assembly, conditional build agreements and forward funding in the industrial and logistics market. Heather also deals with the acquisition and disposal of residential development sites and has assisted a number of local FE Colleges with site disposals to generate substantial inward investment in learning facilities.
