How we can help you:
Disputes between marina operators and berth holders can have significant operational and financial implications. We advise marina owners and operators on disputes relating to moorings, licence agreements, possession proceedings and debt recovery, helping clients protect their interests and achieve practical resolutions.
Floating homes present unique legal, regulatory and property considerations for owners, operators and developers. We advise clients on matters relating to floating homes, helping them navigate ownership, occupation and management arrangements with confidence.
Clear mooring arrangements are essential to the successful operation of marinas and waterside developments. We advise marina operators, landowners and berth holders on mooring leases and licences, helping clients establish effective agreements that support long-term use and management.
Port and harbour developments often involve complex commercial, regulatory and planning considerations. We advise developers, operators and investors on development projects, helping clients manage risk, unlock opportunities and support long-term growth.
Property transactions within the marina sector can involve a range of operational and commercial considerations. We advise owners, operators and investors on acquisitions, disposals and leasehold matters, helping clients maximise value and complete transactions efficiently.
Waterside and riverside developments can create attractive residential, leisure and commercial opportunities. We advise developers, landowners and investors on projects involving moorings and waterfront assets, helping clients navigate legal complexities and deliver successful developments.
