Consultant Lawyer

Josh is an experienced, proactive, and diligent property lawyer who deals with a broad range of residential property related matters.

Having previously been a Partner and Head of Department at a regional Legal 500 firm, Josh has a depth of understanding across the various facets of residential property law.

Josh specialises in high-value residential property, and rural, equestrian and agricultural matters. He acts for both individuals and businesses based both in the UK and overseas, and is able to cater for any residential property related matter.

Over the past decade, Josh has also undertaken leasehold enfranchisement work for both landlords and tenants, including statutory and non-statutory lease extensions.

Away from, work Josh is kept busy by his young family. His interests include football, running, and aviation. Josh lives in Farnham, nearby to the Surrey Hills, and enjoys all the area has to offer.
