UK law firm Michelmores has expanded its private wealth offering with a new team that will oversee private property and landed estates.

The team will be led by Christian Massey, who re-joins Michelmores as a partner from Charles Russell Speechlys.

He previously worked at the firm in the 1990s and will work alongside partners Tom Hyde and Philip Wolfgang.

Mr Massey has experience in managing a broad range of high value and sensitive private property work nationally, including complex landed estates, agricultural and country house property transactions as well as high value London private property work.
