Gateley Legal has appointed Brian Dowling as partner in its residential team.
Brian, previously with Boyes Turner, Irwin Mitchell and Berwin Leighton Paisner, has 18 years’ experience advising on residential development and regeneration, specialising in complex schemes involving both public and third sector.
As well as housebuilders and developers, he has acted for registered housing providers, councils and national regeneration bodies.
Brian said: “It is truly exciting to join such a strong national residential development team at a time where the demand for new housing has never been greater.
“The team covers it all, from acquisition through to plot sales and, uniquely, offers so much more to clients through its complementary consultancy businesses.
“This is of particular interest for long term projects and regeneration schemes, where having a multi-disciplinary offering centred around core legal expertise is extremely beneficial for supporting clients with overcoming the continued challenges to delivery.”
Andy Wilson, partner and national head of the residential development team at Gateley Legal, said: “We have invested heavily in the recruitment of exceptional senior talent within our team throughout the past 12 months, including multiple appointments across our Reading, Guildford and London offices, as part of strategic plans to bolster our offering in the South to meet market demands.
“Brian brings a wealth of valuable experience to the team and it’s great to have him onboard as we continue to service some of the biggest names in housebuilding, as well as developers and land promoters, on immediate and strategic land, large-scale regeneration, urban redevelopment and private rented sector schemes including Build-to-Rent.”
