A legal firm has secured a double panel appointment with national housebuilder Barratt Redrow.

Gateley Legal, which has offices across the UK, including in Newcastle, will now support both the contentious and non-contentious legal services panels, following a competitive tender process.

The three-year appointment extends a working relationship of more than 25 years and will see Gateley provide advice on property, construction, planning, dispute resolution, and employment matters.

Robert Thompson, residential development partner at Gateley Legal, said: "Barratt Redrow has been a valued client for more than two decades.

"Throughout that time, we have had the privilege of supporting the homebuilder through significant change, growth and market challenges, while working closely with its teams to help deliver its business objectives.

"This reappointment is a tremendous endorsement of the trusted adviser relationship we have formed over many years, with our relationship now extending beyond property and construction services.

As part of the non-contentious panel, Gateley will advise on land acquisition, planning, development, and plot sales.

The contentious panel appointment includes support in employment law, dispute resolution, investigations, and strategic risk management.
