Real estate.
Position
Philip has over 20 years of experience in advising public and private sector clients on large scale, high profile real estate development and regeneration projects and the real estate aspects of major projects and infrastructure deals.
Philip led the team that won the award of Energy and Infrastucture Team of the Year at the British Legal Awards 2020 - which recognised Philip and his team’s work on the transfer from Network Rail to Transport for Wales of 87 miles of track, signals, land, people and all other operational railway assets. A project of the scale to transfer of the operational railways around Cardiff (known as the Core Valley Lines) had never been attempted before. The project was a genuine first of a kind deal which was successfully concluded on-time. Other infrastructure experience includes advising clients on projects in the rail, energy, defence, civil nuclear and water sectors.
Philip’s work on regeneration includes advising on high profile developments around the UK, including King’s Cross Central, the Royal Albert Dock regeneration, Limmo Peninsula, Brabazon Bristol and Weavers Cross in Belfast. Given his specialist rail sector experience, Philip has particular expertise in dealing with regeneration sites that interface with transport hubs and transport infrastructure/assets.
