You might be buying a home, building a property portfolio or finding premises for your business. Whatever brings you here, I want you to feel you have someone on your side who understands your plans, knows the detail and is comfortable to talk to.
I practise as a self-employed consultant solicitor through Taylor Rose. Legal services are provided through Taylor Rose Limited.
You do not need to know all the legal questions before you get in touch. Start with what you want to do, and we can talk through the property, the funding and where you need my help.
01 / INVESTMENT
Property investors & landlords
Whether this is your first buy-to-let or a property in an established portfolio, I want to understand how it fits into your plans. I work with investors and landlords on purchases, sales and HMO transactions, with the wider picture in mind.
Buy-to-let · HMOs · Investment purchases
02 / FUNDING
Bridging & refinancing
If you are using bridging finance or refinancing, tell me how the funding fits together and what comes next. I can help you understand the legal requirements and the points we need to address, rather than leaving you wondering what is holding things up.
Bridging finance · Remortgages · Refinancing
03 / COMMERCIAL
Commercial & mixed-use property
Your premises need to work for your business, and a mixed-use property can bring different considerations together. I help with purchases, sales and leases, explaining the legal details in the context of what you intend to do.
Commercial property · Leases · Mixed-use
04 / RESIDENTIAL
Buying & selling a home
Buying or selling a home is personal. Whether it is your first purchase or a move you have thought about for a long time, I want you to feel comfortable asking questions and to understand the decisions you are being asked to make.
Purchases · Sales · Residential property
If your plans cross more than one of these areas, that is a good reason to have a conversation. Tell me what you are trying to achieve.
How I work
Working with you, as part of your team.
I qualified in 2017 and worked across commercial and residential property before becoming a partner and later choosing consultancy. The experience matters, but so does how it feels to work together.
I want you to feel able to pick up the phone, ask the question you think might be obvious and tell me when something does not make sense. My job is to understand the detail, explain what it means for you and help you make an informed decision.
I work alongside clients, brokers, agents and other people involved in a transaction. That means taking your plans seriously, raising concerns clearly and keeping sight of what we are working towards.
I deliberately keep a small caseload because I want to know the matters I am working on. Many clients come back for their next transaction or recommend me to someone else, and that continuing trust is the relationship I want to build with you.
I have worked with Chloe on many property purchases over the last few years and it has always been a great experience. … I see her as a key part of our team.
Chloe at Taylor-Rose quite literally held my hand and patiently guided me through a real rollercoaster when selling/buying. … I couldn't have been more grateful for her expertise and patience.

Residential & commercial locum support
I offer part-time and ad hoc locum support for firms needing an experienced residential or commercial property solicitor. I work outside school holidays, with hours, scope and availability agreed for each arrangement.
To request details and availability, email me with the type of work, the dates you have in mind and the hours you need.
Changing how I worked gave me more choice, but I am still learning how to use it. Moving to Cornwall with my family is part of that story, as is working out what I want my working life to make possible.
Calming Foundations is where I share honest reflections and practical resources about work, money and making more room for life. It is a separate personal project alongside my legal practice.

Practical property writing and more personal reflections on work and the life around it. You can sign up to receive my letters by email.
Tell me a little about you and the property. I’ll review the details so I can understand the work involved and prepare a quote.
Fields marked * are required. Share what you know so far; you can leave optional details blank. I do not undertake new-build or shared-ownership matters.
Your next transaction
Let’s talk about your plans.
You do not need a perfectly prepared brief. Tell me a little about the property, what you hope to do and any dates or funding arrangements that matter. Get in touch to discuss your plans and obtain a quote tailored to your transaction.
