Stan Campbell is an accomplished real estate lawyer with a focus on health and social care real estate. He acts for healthcare providers, developers, investors and funders on all aspects of commercial property matters.

I really value Stan's advice and counsel. Within the constraints under which we were operating, we simply would not have been able to close some of the deals without Stan.

Stan is very knowledgeable. He is very approachable and keen to help. He can describe matters in lay terms and is also very commercially aware.

Stan has been a huge help to me in terms of advice, service and responsiveness.
