We continue the expansion of our Sheffield Real Estate team with the appointment of Alaric Birch as Partner, adding more than 40 years’ property experience to our growing operation in the city.
Alaric joins Flint Bishop as we continue to invest in our Sheffield office and strengthen our Real Estate capability across Sheffield, Yorkshire and the wider North.
Throughout his career, Alaric has advised investors, developers, corporate organisations and high-net-worth individuals across commercial and residential real estate transactions. His expertise spans landlord and tenant matters, promotion and overage agreements, option agreements, refinancing, acquisitions and development funding.
He also brings specialist expertise in unregistered land and contractual construction documentation, alongside significant experience providing real estate due diligence support on corporate share and asset transactions and company restructurings.
Alaric’s experience includes advising on multi-million-pound construction projects at Sheffield’s Advanced Manufacturing Park, including projects involving McLaren Automotive and the UK Atomic Energy Authority. He has also advised on a corporate restructuring involving 19 properties subject to occupational third-party leases and negotiated a promotion agreement covering 50 acres of agricultural land for residential development.
His appointment adds considerable senior technical expertise to our Real Estate practice and builds on a series of recent appointments as Flint Bishop continues to strengthen its presence in Sheffield and invest in its Real Estate offering across the North.
Alaric’s combination of extensive market experience and specialist property expertise further strengthens the support we can provide to investors, developers and businesses across complex real estate transactions and development projects.
We are delighted to welcome Alaric to the firm and look forward to the contribution he will make as we continue to grow our Real Estate capability in Sheffield.
