The ‘responsive and approachable’ team at Darwin Gray LLP is well-versed across the spectrum of real estate, funding, planning and environmental matters, ensuring it is well-placed to provide a ’consistently strong’ and joined-up service throughout the life cycle of a development project. Team head Catherine Burke is ‘making a name for herself’ in the local market for both private sector clients, including housebuilders and funders, and increasingly local authorities. ’Knowledgeable and approachable’ senior associate Sarah Price regularly works alongside Burke on development finance matters, as well as handling some of her own files, including on landlord and tenant matters. Gareth Wedge also covers non-contentious landlord and tenant work, including commercial lease negotiations. Donald Gray continues to provide assistance in his role as consultant, particularly on regeneration projects.
