Law firm hires leasehold enfranchisement expert

Law firm Cripps Pemberton Greenish has expanded its leasehold enfranchisement team with the hire of Amy Jackson from Forsters.

Amy, who was at Forsters for six years in their residential property litigation team, has extensive experience in the leasehold enfranchisement sector acting for both landlords and tenants in all enfranchisement claims. She also has expertise in dealing with tenants’ rights of first refusal under the Landlord & Tenant Act 1987.  She works with landed estates, property companies, investors, developers and private individuals.

Laura Blackwell-Shaw, partner in the residential estates team, said: ‘We are delighted to welcome Amy to the team. She has a great reputation in this niche area of law, and her experience working with such a range of clients will really complement our expertise.’

Amy commented: ‘I am delighted to be joining the firm. The Pemberton Greenish leasehold enfranchisement team, now bolstered by its merger with Cripps, has always had an excellent reputation and I am excited to become part of the team and work with them to build the practice.’
