Real Estate

"Harper Macleod LLP expanded significantly in 2006 adding David Steel from Dundas & Wilson CS LLP, plus four other solicitors. The team advised joint venture Mavor LLP on a £6m acquisition of industrial land in East Kilbride."

The Legal 500, 2007

"This firm has 'made considerable strides in recent months,' according to interviewees. Within the past year, the real estate department has added six new lawyers to its ranks, including David Steel from Dundas & Wilson, and the strengthened group has lost no time in winning instructions from new clients. It is presently acting for Mavor, a joint venture between Hunter Advisors and Elphinstone, on the £6 million acquisition of industrial land at East Kilbride for retail development. It is also handling the Scottish aspects of Whitbread's reorganisation and disposal of its portfolio of Marriott Hotels. Other new clients include South Lanarkshire Council, Airlink Group and City Lofts. Clients laud the group for 'being up to date with any fundamental legal changes' and for 'providing options for consideration and recommending a clear way forward.' David Steel is particularly noted for his commerciality and proficiency in complex deals. He is currently advising Progress Property on a major development in Glasgow."
