Position
Anya Newman was called in 2007 and quickly gained a reputation for her advocacy work, being consistently recognised in the legal directories since 2014.
Anya has a reputation for being practical and supportive to her clients whilst being “formidable” in court. In addition, her attention to detail and drafting is highly valued. Flexible in her approach, she is regarded as being able to expertly read her audience to be able to present arguments in the most persuasive manner possible.
In addition to her real property practice, Anya has a national reputation in Landlord and Tenant. She is passionate about houses, often advising Local Authorities who are considering the redevelopment of estates and private landlords with difficult tenancy issues. She particularly enjoys agricultural work and those cases which affect those living and working in the countryside.
Anya regularly appears in the High Court and has experience of large and complex litigation. She is a practical barrister, able to advise clients on the most cost-effective options in litigation. For that reason, she is frequently instructed to attend mediations and is often engaged at the very beginning of the litigation process, working with her clients to achieve the best possible outcome in each case.
Currently, Anya continues to work on the groundbreaking case of Wolverhampton and Others v Persons Unknown which prevents dangerous car cruising across the Black Country.
Anya accepts direct access instructions.
Education
Leisure
When not working Anya continues her love of property by renovating her historic house in the Cotswolds or her farmhouse in Italy. She loves indulging in Italian culture and improving her (passable) command of the language. To unwind, Anya enjoys performing improvisational theatre and standup comedy.
