Rachel Pitman

Rachel is a partner in the Real Estate team in Manchester. She has 20 years' experience in all aspects of commercial property and acts for developers, investors, landowners and occupiers. She operates in a number of sectors including logistics, retail, offices and strategic land. 

Rachel has a particular strength in project managing large scale transactions and delivering excellent client service.

Rachel has led a number of acquisitions of large multi-let offices which have exchanged within a very short time of instruction. These transactions have required support from various legal disciplines and involve managing a large number of lawyers to deliver the project.  The transactions were successfully concluded within the challenging timescales despite issues arising along the way (such as title defects which needed to be rectified). Rachel has been able to achieve this by providing frank and clear advice drawing upon her extensive experience and protecting her clients interest whilst ensuring the timescales are hit.

Chambers and Partners 2017 - Rachel Pitman advises on both development and investment deals. Clients appreciate her "attention to detail" along with her "depth of knowledge and ability to communicate complex legal issues to non-legal professionals"

Rachel is a keen Manchester United fan, although more of an armchair supporter these days!
