George Constant

Real Estate Investment, Banking & Finance

George has developed a significant reputation over the last 15 years in the Real Estate and Investment world as he has acted in many high value and well publicised transactions for his clients. George has developed his team to work with him in a fairly unique way so that they can meet the demands and needs of their clients. They all have adopted modern methods, with all of them working very closely as a team, effectively and expeditiously with a significant degree of commerciality.

George also has extensive experience in acting for a number of Banks and other Lending Institutions in their Secured Lending transactions. Over the last 7-8 years George has been for some well-known commercial Banks one of their main Solicitors for their transactions. George and his team use the same commercial and modern methods that they use in their Investment transactions to process this type of work which is fairly unusual in the market.

George and his team have developed a particular expertise in Islamic Finance acting for a number of financial institutions who offer Islamic Finance products.

George's clients include many clients in the hospitality and leisure sector acting for various restaurant and bar operators, night club operators and hotel owners and operators.

"All our solicitors strive to deliver the highest level of service to our clients."
