Unlike other practitioners, Michael specialises purely in commercial and residential property litigation, and being a former solicitor he is able to view a legal case from all angles.
While regularly appearing in both the County Court and the FTT on all landlord and tenant matters, Michael is particularly known for his detail, and is often instructed on very complex property cases warranting an in-depth analysis into numerous connected leasehold agreements and inter-party relations.
In addition to his thoroughness, he has been described as “creative” and often finds avenues in what many have prematurely considered dead ends.
He is qualified to accept instructions under the Direct Access scheme.
Types of tenancies: Commercial / Long Residential Leasehold / Assured Shorthold / Assured / Secure / Introductory
This list is non-exhaustive.
Michael is described by solicitors as being “astute and tenacious with an equally impressive grip on both the detail and the bigger picture”. He has also been described as a “superb barrister with broad experience in all matters property related”.
Michael has written many articles which have assisted property practitioners and lay individuals alike and such articles can be accessed at www.lettingsbarrister.co.uk, which website is in affiliation with 42 Bedford Row.
In his spare time, Michael enjoys travelling, chess, learning French and playing piano. When time permits, he enjoys a glass of wine and has an unfortunate penchant for good quality Burgundy reds.
