What the Team is Known For

Barristers at Exchange Chambers are frequently called on to act in litigation pertaining to property acquisitions and developments, as well as complex cases regarding trusts. Members also handle property-related professional negligence cases, title and registry matters, and forfeiture cases. The set's clients include developers, local authorities and individuals. This year, among the work highlights was Cwmni Rheoli Pentref Marina Conwy v Michael McCarthy, a dispute over holiday lets. A source notes: "Exchange has a broad range of experience across all areas of property litigation."
