Lucy joined DMH Stallard after having worked in her previous firm for over 15 years. She started her career acting for Registered Providers in respect of their property portfolios. Over 10 years ago she moved into the property development department, acting for developers.
She deals with all acquisitions of development sites whether it be by way of auction, outright purchase, option or conditional contract and thereafter all associated matters in order to have the site ready for rent or sale.
Lucy works primarily in our Gatwick office but also collaborates closely with colleagues in our other locations.
