Cheltenham and its wider surrounds into the Midlands and the South West are home to some of the most diverse and dynamic investors and entrepreneurs and their businesses that form the bedrock of the national and local economy, many with international reach.

They range from individuals making their wealth in significant private and public companies to family owner managers that have passed their honed businesses successfully through the generations; each playing their talented part in making our community prosper. 

We take great pride in working with business owners at all stages of the journey, as they continue to innovate, grow and invest. Read more about how we can assist Investors & Entrepreneurs here.

Strategic land is a long game with different approaches to suit a landowner’s appetite for risk, need to generate cash and wish to control the look and feel of the developed scheme.

With larger schemes involving more than one landowner, you will need to consider how you structure the delivering of the scheme working with your neighbours while mitigating tax.

In Cheltenham, our strategic land team offers a one-stop service to landowners, helping you plan for and realise maximum value. Our team operates within one of the largest private client practices in a UK law firm and one of the largest real estate teams in the country. Our breadth and quality of specialist services across the firm gives us the ability to offer a one-stop service.

We act for over 100 estates and for both individual and institutional landowners in relation to sites across the country. We have extensive knowledge and experience in guiding landowners through the options available and can assist with your negotiations to achieve the best deal and deliver a solution which maximises value and tax efficiency.

As reflected by the local talent in the workplace, Cheltenham and the surrounding regions have invested heavily in education, across the state and private sectors.

Our multi-disciplinary Education group advises schools, colleges, universities and other educational institutions, enabling us to help you to navigate this highly regulated sector. The group contains specialists with a deep understanding of the legal, regulatory and, where applicable, charity law issues that educational institutions face.

The sector is experiencing a period of change and we can assist you on a diverse range of innovative strategies – read more about how here.
