Talk to us

With sustainability rightly and firmly at the forefront of the Government’s agenda, the agriculture and landed estates market needs experienced and trusted advisors to light a path through the changing policy landscape.

We’re used to tackling even the most complex and sophisticated matters. Our team has a deep understanding of estate management, succession planning, the sale and purchase of land, development options and planning, easements, mines and minerals, ecclesiastical law, tenancies, farming tenancy and partnership disputes, renewable energy and environmental issues.

Supported by our capabilities as a multi-award-winning and full-service law firm, we also have expertise in dispute resolution and litigation, tax planning, employment matters, health and safety and much more.

Our expertise

The team is spearheaded by The Legal 500 Hall of Fame’s Rupert Jackson — an experienced commercial property lawyer who advises on complex rights, titles and liability matters, as well as asset planning and environmental concerns. Further support is provided by Charles Hansford — another Recommended Lawyer in The Legal 500, who advises some of the largest landed estates in the North West and has a nationally recognised specialism in mines and minerals.
