Practice Areas

Paul leads the Property Litigation Team at Freeths, which is made up of around 40 lawyers. He has extensive experience in dealing with all Property Litigation issues, including contested and uncontested lease renewals, dilapidations claims, break clause issues, service charge disputes and easement and covenant matters.

Paul ensures that he and his team understand their clients’ specific business needs, so that they do not simply offer the client a list of legal options, but a practical solution tailored to the client’s specific business requirements. He always has a focus on the expense, time and risk of litigation and does not “get lost” in “interesting” legal points with no commercial impact.

Paul is a member of the Property Litigation Association (“PLA”) and sits on the sub-committee of the PLA in the Midlands.

Personal
