Often approached for its experience in landlord and tenant matters, Frettens LLP regularly assists with acquisitions and disposals, in addition to a growing stream of leasehold and social housing mandates. Co-head Oonagh McKinney is ‘friendly, available and is able to get to the centre of an issue quickly’, with fellow co-head Ben Cobb being described as ’a safe pair of hands’. In September 2023, the firm welcomed Sarah Heath who adds experience in commercial and agricultural transactions as well as redevelopments. At the associate level, Hannah Martin is active in the social housing space, and Patsy Whitford is noted for her experience in development, leasing, and tenant and landlord matters. The team is split between Christchurch and Ringwood.
