I am a senior expert in 星空体育app下载 UK鈥檚 Lease Consultancy and Value Recovery team. My caseload covers disputes, negotiations and other asset management initiatives between commercial landlords and tenants. Typically, these include rent reviews, lease renewals, lease restructures and s18 (dilapidations) valuations, primarily on office premises. I also take appointments as a fixed charge (LPA) receiver and work with lenders to assist in the recovery of loans. I have a track record in dealing with disputes on a wide range of properties with a particular focus on office premises in London and the south-east.
I am also an experienced expert witness, having given and defended evidence in the High Court, County Court, arbitration oral hearings and at mediations. I help clients to assemble a team of relevant experts to support their case and working with lawyers. I was voted one of the UK鈥檚 top-10 rent review surveyors in the poll by Property Week.
I regularly act for a broad variety of investors and occupiers and is also an experienced arbitrator, and co-author of the current RICS guidance notes for surveyors acting as arbitrators and as independent experts.
Working to support lenders, I have taken many appointments as a fixed charge (LPA) receiver and also work as a bank monitor to oversee consensual workouts. I have dealt with a wide range of properties and circumstances; advising on failed residential developments, prepared properties for sale as development opportunities, and stabilised investments where asset management work was required before bringing properties to the market. Some cases have involved a quick sale, others a long hold while asset management initiatives have been progressed.
