Banking team hailed for expertise by Legal 500 2019

The banking team at Sintons has been praised by Legal 500 2019 for its experience and capability, with its work in real estate finance hailed as “a real area of expertise”.

The team, noted for being “available, helpful and supportive”, acts for a range of banking sector lenders and borrowers, including commercial landlords, and is regularly instructed in many major multi-million pound transactions, often in transactions with national significance.

It is hailed as being particularly strong in real estate finance, education and healthcare, the latter of which Sintons is described as being “one of the most knowledgeable firms in this sector”.

Jane Meikle, head of banking at Sintons, is praised for her “significant experience” in real estate borrower work and in acting for lenders.

Partner David Ferguson also wins plaudits in this area, with one testimonial describing Jane and David as being “first class”.

Sintons has a longstanding reputation for its capability in its banking and real estate finance work, but its development as part of Sintons’ Strategy for Growth has seen strong gains made in recent times.

Mark Quigley, managing partner of Sintons, said: “Our banking and finance team has made great strides in recent years to build on its strong reputation and really drive that forward. Jane and her team are doing a superb job in growing the department and our continued involvement in major transactions is testament to that. These rankings from Legal 500 2019 are rightful recognition of the excellent work that is being done and the outstanding client service that is being delivered in this very specialist area.”
