Farrer & Co

Farrer & Co is a key advisor to private banks on complex residential property matters, with a practice noted for its ability to handle non-standard transactions such as auction sales and receivership issues. This specialist capability is part of a wider offering that covers high-value acquisitions, development, and refinancings for both residential and rural estates, all of which is overseen by practice head Hugh Wigzell. The practice’s seniority and strategic importance within the firm are further demonstrated by Laura Conduit, who heads the firm’s wider property department, and Laurie Horwood, who leverages his experience in high-value, complex work. The practice is further strengthened by Annabel Dean, who is the go-to for complex SPV deals and share purchase transactions, and Edmund Fetherston-Dilke, who is well-versed in both high-end residential and rural property matters.
