Career
David heads the Real Estate team and the following is a link to his profile on the website - https://www.tughans.com/people/david-jones/. His workload is generally split 50/50 between England & Wales and NI and he works across all areas of commercial real estate, with a particular focus on development, investment and large-scale Landlord and Tenant work. He is also involved in the high level structuring of large scale real estate development projects in the Republic of Ireland and Scotland as well, due to the nature of his experience in complex, bespoke development work.
David has been involved in many of the most significant real estate transactions in the jurisdiction over recent years, including the first private sector student accommodation development in NI – John Bell House in Belfast, involving the complex and sensitive conversion of an iconic listed building in the city centre and the first major build to rent development scheme at Loft Lines in Titanic Quarter. He is also bringing contacts together, making introductions to enable projects to be formulated and is a genuine deal-maker in this regard.
David also produces sought-after thought leadership articles and contributes to jurisdictional guides for Northern Ireland.
David is on the committee of the Northern Ireland Commercial Property Lawyers’ Association and a member of the Institute of Directors. As part of the NICPLA committee, David was involved in producing the commercial property conditions for inclusion in the Law Society of Northern Ireland’s updated General Conditions of Sale. These updated conditions represent a significant development for the profession as a whole in NI.
David is also part of the senior level public/private taskforce looking at increasing investment in the Northern Irish commercial property sector, alongside sitting on the Regeneration Policy Steering Committee for the Belfast Chamber of Commerce.
