Our London office services
Our team’s main focus is real estate, contentious and non-contentious construction and social housing law. We act for a range of commercial clients, including developers, investors, contractors, local authorities and various social housing bodies. We also specialise in renewable energy and work closely with other Clarke Willmott teams to support clients across the UK.
Our private client team works with individuals to provide personal injury, serious injury and medical negligence legal advice.
Our work in the community
Our current office charity is St Mungo’s. The charity was founded in 1969 by a group of volunteers who decided to do something to help homeless people. The charity now helps thousands of people throughout London and the South of England. St Mungo’s pioneered many of the services which are now a part of the homelessness sector practice and projects. These include the first specialist projects solely for people sleeping rough suffering from mental illness (40% of rough sleepers have a mental health condition), alcohol misuse and the elderly.
