Known for offering ‘strategic and pragmatic advice’, the property litigation team at Russell-Cooke LLP advises ultra-high-net-worth individuals and leading retailers on various disputes. The team is led by Paul Greatholder, who handles contentious matters involving business tenancies and the enforcement of lease terms. Edward Cracknell covers landlord and tenant disputes and the termination of telecoms leases, private rental sector expert Stephen Small also focuses on commercial and residential disputes, and the ’outstanding’ Shabnam Ali-Khan concentrates on enfranchisement work and residential leasehold issues. Pauline Lam is well versed in cladding and building safety claims, and Harriet Allsop advises on contentious commercial property matters. Previous co-head Jason Hunter has retired.
