Commercial property trio bolsters the team in Norwich

Central and east England firm Howes Percival has expanded the commercial property team in Norwich with the triple appointment of Christopher Cubitt, Afreen Mhar and Will Bond.

Christopher (second left) joins the firm as a partner after almost eight years with Hatch Brenner LLP in Norwich, where he served as partner and head of property. He is widely experienced in a broad range of matters including property development and finance, land acquisition and commercial lettings.

Afreen (left), who comes on board as a solicitor, has joined the firm from Lambert Pugh LLP. She advises developers, lenders, property investors and landowners on matters such as freehold, leasehold, re-mortgages and right to buys, and also offers experience in residential conveyancing.

Will (right) also joins as a solicitor, after nearly four years with Clapham & Collinge LLP. He regularly acts for  developers, landowners, investors, landlords and tenants in commercial property and development matters.

Tessa Haskey (second right), Howes Percival's chairman and commercial property partner, said: ‘I'm delighted to welcome Chris, Afreen and Will to Howes Percival. Our commercial property team is one of the largest and most skilled teams of property legal specialists in the Eastern Region and these appointments are further evidence our commitment to the sector.’
