About

Provided by Taylor Wessing LLP

The global real estate sector is facing ever increasing change. There's always been demand for a high quality built environment but this is evolving at a rapid pace.

We've advised on all aspects of some of the world's most iconic buildings and landmark property projects. We've supported our clients on the most important property investments they'll ever make.

We're operating in a new world. Globalisation, sustainability, increased demand for technology, data privacy and rising cyber security risks. These are some of the issues we're monitoring for our clients. We help them revise strategies to adapt to the changes and risks that this market is known for.

Clients say that we provide an extraordinary level of professional, personal and emotional effort. The wide ranging advice we give obviously comes from experience on the most complex deals and across all areas that touch real estate, but it's the relationships we have that make us different and the reason people say they enjoy working with us.

The built environment affects us all. Our capability spans the full lifecycle of advice that anyone with an interest in property could need.
