Practice Areas

Tim has acted for all of the country’s largest national housebuilders, including regeneration specialists. He started out his residential development career in 1987 when he joined the housing division of Tarmac Plc as an in-house solicitor. At the time Tarmac was the largest housebuilder in the country. In addition to acting for housebuilders, a good deal of Tim's practice nowadays involves acting for three of the country’s largest residential land promoters.

Since 1987, Tim has specialised exclusively in the housebuilding sector and as a consequence has an enviable wealth of experience in dealing with all aspects of the acquisition and disposal of consented and unconsented land whether through conditional contracts, strategic options or land promotion agreements. He has also prepared consortium and partnering agreements between other builders, Registered Providers and local authorities.

Having been an in-house solicitor for many years, and acting exclusively in the sector ever since, Tim has an understanding of its commercial imperatives, drivers and language and is able to apply his legal advice in a very practical and commercial manner.

With over 30 years of experience in buying residential development sites, Tim can tell clients what will hinder development and sales and what won't and can always give them a solution to any title or other difficulty found during the due diligence exercise.

He advises clients of the most effective way to structure complex transactions and by doing this when heads of terms are being agreed, he can enable a swifter acquisition.
