Often collaborating with other core practice groups, including banking and construction, the ‘very knowledgeable, professional and accessible’ team at Hugh James remains a very popular choice among a balanced mix of public and private sector stakeholders across a wide array of commercial property matters. Team head Peter Hurn is a very well-known figure in the market and continues to advise an impressive roster of housebuilders on residential development projects, as well as advising developers on renewables matters. In the social housing sector, Caroline O’Flaherty provides ’a very comprehensive, considered and constructive service’ to a multitude of Wales-based housing associations (as well as a growing number in England) on their property needs. Leveraging her broader planning expertise, senior associate Shelley Thomas is also a key member of the team and regularly advises on large-scale residential and mixed-use projects.
