ust some of the comments about
Endeavour Partnership’s Commercial
Property team – and it’s expanding –
again.
Thanks to its exceptional legal skills,
demand for this specialist service is
constantly growing whether it’s from large-
scale commercial organisations, or sales
and purchases for those expanding their
portfolios.
Partner, Simon Wake, has over 30 years
experience in the sector and is one of the
North’s leading commercial property legal
experts.
He heads the team for Endeavour
Partnership: “The knowledge offered by our
team of commercial property law specialists
is second to none. We also work closely
with experts from other areas of the firm to
deliver an all-encompassing service.
Our team will always ensure transactions
run smoothly, making sure all business needs
are recognised - from development to sale -
using our resources to the full for a flawless
finish.”
Endeavour’s team can advise on both
residential and commercial property
developments with specific expertise on how
best to manage property ventures and can
advise on any disposals, whether of whole
sites or individual units.
Meet the latest members of the team..
Gareth
Jones joined
Endeavour
Partnership to
work alongside
Simon in 2018,
becoming the
third Partner in
the commercial
property team.
Graduating
from Liverpool
University in
1990, Gareth
has over 25 years of expertise in commercial
property matters, particularly portfolio
management work for a wide range of
clients. He also has a keen interest in the
real estate aspects of bank funding and
finance and has experience acting on behalf
of both the borrowing business and the main
household name banks.
As an adopted Teessider, Gareth has a
client base stretching across Yorkshire,
County Durham and the Tees Valley.
The team has now grown to nine with the
recruitment over the summer of two new
members of staff.
Carly Cornell specialises in commercial
property and has experience of a variety
of commercial property matters including
acquisitions and disposals for both investor
and occupier clients, landlord and tenant
work including portfolio management work
and general estate management work for a
broad range of clients in both the public and
private sector.
Carly was born and raised on Teesside
and went on to study at the University
of Warwick before joining a regional law
firm in Leeds to undertake her training
contract. Upon qualification, Carly moved
to an international law firm in Leeds and
then made the move back to Teesside to
join another international law firm based
in Newcastle. Carly brought with her the
knowledge and experience she gained from
working at these firms and dealing with often
high value, complex property transactions for
a wide range of clients.
And Lindsey Carter has also recently joined
the Commercial Property team as CILEX
Conveyancing Practitioner, having gained her
industry qualification as earlier this year.
Lindsey’s knowledge of the property
sector is vast, with over 10 years’ experience
dealing with both residential and commercial
property. Lindsey is also from Teesside but
has gained some of her experience working
for firms based in Leeds and Warwickshire.
Lindsey has experience in all aspects of
property including sales and purchases,
landlord and tenant work and transfers of
equity whether its freehold, leasehold, new
build developments acting for individuals and
company clients.
What Endeavour offers
Don’t just take our word for it…
Andy Preston, now the Mayor of
Middlesbrough, said: “Based on our
experiences of working with Endeavour
Partnership, we wholeheartedly recommend
them as the go-to experts in commercial
legal services. Friendly expert advice is
always forthcoming, and we love working
with them. What’s helpful is that they have a
real expert in every commercial field, which
is a commodity that cannot be overstated.”
And Claire Carter, from Collins Seafoods,
added: “It is a refreshing change to build up
a relationship with a company who has a no-
nonsense way of dealing with matters and
works with its clients rather than for them. I
would have no hesitation in recommending
the Endeavour Partnership for any legal work
you require.”
