Commercial property team welcomes partner

Morr & Co has appointed Nick Leavey as partner in its commercial property team, bolstering the firm’s real estate capabilities across Surrey, Hampshire and London. Bringing 25 years’ experience in property development and landlord and tenant matters, Leavey will focus on expanding the firm’s commercial property offering while supporting ongoing growth.

Leavey has acted for listed companies, public sector organisations, global corporations, family-owned businesses and private individuals. His work spans commercial and mixed-use development schemes, alongside advising investors, landlords, occupiers and tenants on transactions and portfolio management. He is recognised for delivering commercially focused, strategic advice shaped by ‘a clear understanding of clients’ businesses and objectives’.

Catherine Fisher, managing partner at Morr & Co, said she had worked with Leavey previously and described him as ‘dedicated to exceptional client service’ and ‘the ideal person to build on the success of our commercial property team’. Leavey added that helping clients grow their businesses has always been central to his practice, noting: ‘Morr & Co is a great fit – and working closer to home is the icing on the cake!’

Leavey joins from Knights Plc, having moved there through its acquisition of Coffin Mew, where he held roles including chairman and head of real estate. He will be based across the firm’s Redhill and Wimbledon offices, joining a commercial property team that advises on acquisition and sale, planning, funding, development, construction and leasing for clients across sectors from healthcare and retail to industrial, pensions and not-for-profit.
