We needed to complete two mezzanine development loans within two weeks to hit the CBILS deadline. Newmanor got the job done, without cutting any corners.
We provide relatively small mezzanine development loans. We need expert lawyers, but at a price that fits with our loan size. Newmanor’s fixed fee approach gives us and our clients comfort that legal bills won’t spiral out of control.

We have worked with Newmanor Law since they set up. Since then, they have provided extensive services in respect of transactional and advisory work to Rubicon Capital and its associates. The Newmanor team have provided detailed knowledge and advice within a commercial mindset and show a great understanding of our business needs alongside the legal requirements in order to assist Rubicon Capital to grow and succeed. They are a core partner of our business and one of the key trusted advisors for the continued progression of our business. They provide extremely high-quality knowledge, input and advice within the SME space with a commercial and entrepreneurial mindset to facilitate their clients’ ambitions.

Landlords
ITC Properties needed to enter into a lease of an electricity substation chamber with London Power Networks as part of the development of 20 Greycoat Place, London, SW1. The Newmanor Team pushed the transaction forward to completion in a record time of 4 weeks to enable energisation. Karen, Edmund and Mandy do not put up with delays and they actively found solutions and helped to unblock this transaction to keep our development on track and all for a genuine fixed fee which was honoured. I am happy to recommend Newmanor Law’s services.

It has been great working with Newmanor Law and in particular Edmund on our real estate transactions – not only purchases but also work around historic title ownership queries regarding our portfolio of mixed-use properties. Wealden Properties has benefitted from expert advice, always being advised on what can be done rather than focusing on the issues, with all the options being explained in a clear and concise way. I can highly recommend Newmanor’s services.

At the Adams Group, we are a third generation family business with customer service at the heart of everything we do. To bring in a new tenant for a petrol forecourt with a 2,000 sq ft store in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, we looked to Karen and Edmund at Newmanor Law to guide us through exchange and completion of a long lease. Newmanor Law provide clear and simple advice and are always available. The new tenant, Ascona Group, now operates the site with BP and Nisa Local and I am delighted with the result. The Adams Group recommend Newmanor Law to Landlords.

Karen, Edmund and the team at Newmanor have again provided an efficient and professional service to close what was a challenging lease transaction. We could not recommend Newmanor more highly.

Occupiers
We at Moorhall Capital and Rubicon Capital decided to relocate our real estate finance and capital advisory businesses to new premises at St James’s Place SW1 to build on our continued success and growth. Newmanor Law is already a key trusted advisor for our finance transactions and so our lease transaction was a great opportunity to work closely with Newmanor’s real estate team, in particular Karen, Edmund and Mandy. The team took ownership of our deal, kept their word, did what they said and worked fast to stick to our transaction timetable. We are very pleased with the service we received and we are happy to recommend Newmanor Law’s real estate offering as best in class.

Our first such lease agreement in the UK meant finding a specialist real estate law firm to not only advise on this deal, but also to work closely with us, recognising the opportunity to grow together. I’m pleased to say, Newmanor Law are that firm. They took the time to get to know us and got everything done to hit our deadline. Karen and her team worked with us on the pricing, offering a fixed fee which instils confidence they will be quick and efficient.

Developers
I am a residential developer who recently completed the construction of luxury apartments in the London Borough of Bromley. The real estate and real estate finance team at Newmanor, in particular James, Karen, Edmund and Mandy, assisted with the development lease for the site, the financing for the development and the long leases for the apartments. The service provided was excellent. The team do what they say, they push the transaction and then tell me where we are up to. Very responsive and all for a genuine fixed fee. I am happy to recommend Newmanor Law’s services.
