Independent law firm Brabners has bolstered its real estate practice with the appointment of Ben Lamb as partner.
Ben is an experienced real estate partner who is known for his proactive approach to transactions and his straightforward and pragmatic advice. He advises a broad range of clients across all key commercial property sectors including logistics, retail, leisure and offices.
As well as acting for investors, developers and corporate occupiers, Ben also represents a range of funders and borrowers on real estate finance transactions.
He joins from Clarion, where he operated as a partner in the real estate team for over 9 years. Based in Leeds since 2011, he previously worked as a lawyer in the City of London for a decade.
Ben’s addition grows one of the largest real estate practices in the North of England.
Ben Lamb, real estate partner at Brabners, said: “Ahead of my move to Brabners, I spent considerable time with the firm’s managing partner Nik White and other members of the management team. I was struck by their clear and ambitious growth strategy for both Leeds and across the North.
“This is allied with an unwavering commitment to delivering a joined up, user friendly service to clients, which is apparent from all the interactions that I have had across the firm. I have no doubt that Brabners will prove to be an excellent new base for me to serve my clients and provide a great platform for winning new business in Yorkshire and beyond.”
Nik White, managing partner at Brabners, said: “Ben’s appointment is a key part of our ambition to continue building a market-leading real estate capability in Leeds and across the North.
“We know Ben’s reputation as an excellent lawyer who goes the extra mile for his clients and this makes him an ideal fit to strengthen and grow our real estate practice and the Leeds office. It’s a pleasure to see our Leeds office continuing to grow at pace and I have no doubt that Ben will prove a significant addition to the firm.”
