Gleeson Homes has appointed Irwin Mitchell to its panel for its property legal work.
The Irwin Mitchell team that secured the appointment was led by Leeds-based Northern property transactional partner Michelle Beaumont, who is head of the firm’s housing sector, and Danny Revitt, co-head of real estate disputes and based in Sheffield.
The panel covers areas such as transactional property, planning and environment, real estate disputes, construction, commercial agreements, and disputes and regulatory work.
Irwin Mitchell said that its inclusion on the Gleeson property legal panel could generate instructions from up to 10 regional land directors/heads of land covering the North and Midlands.
Gleeson is the trading name of part of the MJ Gleeson group of companies, a UK FTSE Small Cap housebuilder. It builds affordable, quality homes and currently operates from nine regional and one head office, based across the North of England and in the Midlands.
Revitt (pictured, left) said: “As two established businesses with ambitious growth plans and a national presence that were founded and are still headquartered in Sheffield, there is a natural synergy between Gleeson and Irwin Mitchell. We are excited to work with Gleeson as it rolls out more projects across the North and Midlands.”
Beaumont (pictured, right) continued: “We already have a strong reputation in the housing sector advising major housebuilders on their legal issues. We are delighted with our appointment, which gives us the opportunity to work with a leading business in the sector.”
