Builders & Property Developers

There is only one way to gain expertise in any area of law, and that is through hard-earned experience.

Many solicitors’ firms claim to be experts in specialist legal fields. Only a firm of solicitors’ proven track record in a particular area is a reliable guarantee of good practice, outstanding service and gratifying results.

Sedgwick Phelan is one of the few legal firms in the North West to enjoy Lexcel Accreditation for precisely this reason. It is a philosophy that we practice across all legal areas in which we operate. Within the arena of construction development, we are committed to providing cost-effective and practical solutions, combined with depth of experience to ensure we consistently arrive at the most favourable conclusion for our clients.

Sedgwick Phelan have accrued experience in all areas of commercial property development law and the commercial issues that may arise as a result our clients’ business. A typical project is between 10 and 50 properties, and Sedgwick Phelan has specialist solicitors who can involved at every level of a project, from negotiating and securing land acquisition and taking responsibilities for sewerage, gas, electric and phone, to confirming boundary lines and resolving boundary disputes and rights of access.

These are all areas that must be addressed and resolved before purchasing a property for development.

With a sound knowledge acquired through over 100 years’ of combined experience in property development, Sedgwick Phelan can offer an expert, dedicated legal service that other firms, through lack of knowledge and practice, simply cannot offer.

Our track record demonstrates time and again that Sedgwick Phelan’s clients know that their legal interests are being properly and professionally looked after, because the solicitor or solicitors they are working with have a thorough knowledge of their business and can consequently deliver a tailored and value-for-money service.
