Richard Quenby
Richard Quenby was called to the Bar in 1985. For the next thirteen years he practised at the Chancery Bar in Manchester, where he specialised in landlord and tenant, commercial property and insolvency work.
Subsequently, he spent more than six years as the Principal Professional Support Lawyer in the Real Estate Division of Addleshaw Goddard LLP, whose clients included a wide range of well-known developers, funders, institutional investors, property companies and retail operators.
Richard now works as a freelance writer, tutor and lecturer. His published articles have appeared in Estates Gazette, Property Week, Legal Week and The Lawyer. He is also the co-author of Flat Schemes in Residential and Mixed Use Developments, published by Bloomsbury Publishing.
The recent growth in the number of applications to register town and village greens has been likened to an industry. This seminar provides practical and commercial guidance for property lawyers in relation both to identifying land, which may be susceptible to such applications, and devising strategies that can be adopted to defeat them.
