Charles Russell Speechlys has appointed Andrew Ross from Travers Smith LLP as a partner in the firm’s real estate disputes team.
Ross, who has significant experience acting for clients in all manner of property disputes, ranging from rights of light disputes at Central London developments, to shooting and fishing rights on country estates, headed up Travers Smith LLP’s property disputes offering. Prior to becoming a solicitor, Ross was a professional historian and lecturer.
David Haines, partner and head of real estate disputes at Charles Russell Speechlys, said: “Andrew is an excellent hire for us, and there are no shortage of synergies between his client work and our key areas of focus – including private capital. We very much look forward to welcoming him into the team.”
Ross added: “I was drawn to the firm not just because of its reputation in real estate disputes, but also in private capital – an area many of my clients have expressed an interest in. Joining allows me greater freedom to explore opportunities for collaboration with my new colleagues, and the benefits this can bring to my clients.”
