Morgan West

Why choose me

It’s the variety of work and the interaction with clients that I love most about practicing property law.

My specialism is the education sector, where I lead on our work with academies and multi-academy trusts (MATs). This involves advising on conversions, transfers and day-to-day matters. I also advise independent schools on a range of issues, including the property aspects of mergers and acquisitions, sales and operational needs, and commonly work with further and higher education institutions, charities and sports clubs.

Other work commonly involves working with a range of businesses and individuals as well as property investors and lenders. On your behalf, I draft legal documents and advise on transactions like purchases, sales, leases and licences, and variations or deeds of easement and covenant.

I’m very commercially focused, so I’ll protect your best interests while minimising your fees, and if something needs further consideration, I’ll tell you straight away. I believe it’s best to identify timescales at the start of the process, and I always go the extra mile to meet a deadline. My reports are clear and easy to understand, and I’m always available if you want to chat through something. Above all, I’m driven by the satisfaction I get from achieving results for my clients.

Away from work, I love to play and watch sport like football and rugby as well as sailing and athletics. I was lucky enough to grow up on the Jurassic Coast, and firmly believe you can’t beat a good coastal walk and a pub lunch!
