Comprised of ‘robust strategic thinkers’, the property litigation department at Fieldfisher operates across the tech, finance, and energy sectors, and handles a broad range of disputes. The ’highly experienced’ Antony Phillips anchors the practice and specialises in cases relating to dilapidations and secured lending recovery. Industry veteran Lesley Webber is noted for her expertise in contentious property law, whereas the ‘stand out’ Faye Hyland regularly appears in High Court proceedings, particularly with relation to pre-emptive injunctive relief litigation. The ’exceptional’ Jamie Mangan focuses on rent review work for leading clients, and the ‘intelligent’ Laura West demonstrates strengths in the telecoms sector, and advises clients on renewals, surveys, and terminations.
