Nirav Shah
Legal Director
As a property solicitor, I have experience with all aspects of transactional property work, but with a particular focus on acting for private bridge lender clients, as well as the occasional borrower client. I regularly act for high net worth individuals, whether personally or for their companies, both based in the UK and abroad.
Experience
Prior to joining Harold Benjamin in February 2024, I worked at a boutique West End law firm, covering all aspects of property law, where I was fortunate to count amongst my clients a prominent manufacturer, charities, pharmaceutical wholesalers, a major independent pharmacy chain, a prominent food distributor, and several extremely high net worth Indian nationals.
I maintain strong relationships with other solicitors, barristers, brokers, accountants, tax advisors, agents, surveyors and auctioneers, and will tap into these relationships for the benefit of my clients whenever required.
