  • Submission from the City of Westminster and Holborn Law Society
    Response of the City of Westminster and Holborn Law Society To Legal Services Board Consultation Paper “Internal Governance and Practising Fee Rules Supplementary Consultation on proposed rules to be made under sections 30 and 51 of the Legal Services Act 2007 (c.29)” The City of Westminster and Holborn Law Society (‘CWHLS’) The City of Westminster and Holborn Law Society („CWHLS‟) enjoys perhaps the most diverse membership amongst local Law Societies, encompassing as it does, a membership ranging from larger firms, including those which have been called in recent years "the silver circle" down to small high street practices and individual in-house solicitors, including those working for public bodies and government. Our membership includes those who practice at all levels of the profession, including those who regularly represent solicitors in SRA investigations and members of the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal, and those who have practised extensively in the field of solicitors‟ negligence and professional indemnity insurance. Membership is voluntary and CWHLS is run by a committee comprising 33 solicitors representing a very wide range of specialisms. Its work is carried out by 11 specialist sub- committees, one of which, the Professional Matters Sub-Committee, concentrates on matters such as regulation of solicitors, matters affecting their practice, etc. Response We are only proposing to respond on one section only of the Consultation Paper, namely Part C of the draft Practising Fee Rules: “The Permitted Purposes”. The Permitted Purposes As currently drafted these appear to be over-restrictive, with the result that there is real doubt as to whether the representative arm of Law Society would be permitted to perform some of its proper representative functions.

  • Tristan Fund Buys Historic Holborn Links Estate in London's Midtown for £245 Million
    Tristan Fund Buys Historic Holborn Links Estate in London’s Midtown for £245 million 2 March 2020, London: CCP 5 Long Life (CCP 5 LL), the core-plus perpetual fund advised by Tristan Capital Partners, and Cording Real Estate Group, have acquired the Holborn Links Estate (The Estate) in Central London for a total investment of £245 million (€293 million) from LabTech Investments Limited. Located between the City and London’s West End, the 2.5-acre freehold estate comprises 32 individual assets over 253,715 sq. ft. of leasable space. The Estate is currently home to 50 different tenants across a broad range of sectors and also includes a number of Grade II listed buildings of historical importance, the most prominent of which is Sicilian Avenue. Nicho Jenkins, Managing Director at Tristan, said: “The Holborn Links Estate has huge potential. Our focus will be on repositioning the entire offer to create a high quality user experience in a cohesive and carefully curated environment. That investment should allow us to benefit from burgeoning demand for office and retail space in Midtown, at a time when vacancy rates are low and there is a limited development pipeline.” The Estate is located in the heart of Bloomsbury, one of London’s most vibrant submarkets which is home to world famous institutions including University College London (UCL), London School of Economics (LSE), Great Ormond Street Hospital and The British Museum. The Estate is located close to two Crossrail stations on the Elizabeth line, Tottenham Court Road and Farringdon, both of which are due to open at the end of this year and is a short walk from Holborn tube station, which is currently undergoing major refurbishment works.
