What can I do for you

Richard works extensively as a real estate lawyer in the education, charity, government and not-for-profit sectors helping them with their operational estates, development projects and investment properties. Richard has particular experience of helping clients manage the complex issues surrounding major operational premises relocation as well as working with clients to improve their existing premises.

Supporting your ambitions

Richard worked with the University of Northampton to help them achieve their ambition of creating a brand new university campus fit for the 21st century. The project has lasted for six years and required the acquisition of a new site, planning permission for a new university, funding and the disposal of the old site.  Using the combination of his knowledge of the education sector, charity law and property development experience together with a pragmatic and commercial approach helped the University through a unique and complex series of transactions to achieve its aim.

What else should you know?

Richard has a keen interest in diversity and inclusion issues and participates in networks both inside the firm and outside to further this objective.

I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.”

“All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.”

“I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.”
