Elizabeth Newson

I am a Partner in Michelmores’ Real Estate team. I have worked across the full spectrum of commercial property in my time as a transactional real estate lawyer but in more recent years I have focussed my practice around residential development and strategic land. I advise land promoters, regional and national housebuilders, local authorities, landowners and landed estates. By acting “on both sides of the fence” I am able to bring to bear insights that are gained acting for developers when acting opposite them, helping to push transactions to a successful conclusion. My expertise includes advising on the acquisition and disposal of land for development, conditional contracts, option agreements, promotion agreements, collaboration agreements and overage arrangements. Housing is a key part of any political agenda and with many current issues impacting the sector including climate change, zero carbon, nutrient neutrality and biodiversity net gain, it is an exciting and technically challenging area within which to practice.
