Shoosmiths LLP harnesses its considerable bench strength to operate across the investment, living, automotive and energy sectors, with an established reputation in acting for significant clients on high-value investment projects and house building mandates. Steering the team is Nathan Rees, who is regularly engaged by a panoply of clients on large-scale investment work, acquisitions and financing transactions. Alan Corcoran leads the southern real estate offering, with an established presence in the investment and corporate occupancy fields, while Daniel Halstead acts for a myriad of clients spanning developers, funders, investors and operators in the living sector. In May 2023, Ben Pariser was appointed to head up the national housebuilding sector team, and Liz McKillop Paley, who focuses on investment and energy-related work, was promoted to partner. Marcus Devanny is another key name to note.
