Meet Sam

I am a director in the Commercial Real Estate team, having joined Lawrence Stephens from Memery Crystal in January 2025. Prior to joining Memery Crystal, I spent 10 years at BCLP.

I have gained extensive commercial property experience across a wide range of areas including development, pre-lettings, acquisitions and disposals, international project management, joint ventures and landlord and tenant matters.

Throughout my career, I have acted for major international and domestic clients including developers, funds, corporate occupiers and supermarkets within the office, industrial and retail sectors.

  • Advised a multinational brewery, distillery and bar chain on a variety of Property transactions across its UK portfolio of bars.
  • Acted for a major supermarket chain on the acquisition, disposal and management of shopping centres and supermarkets.
  • Advised one of the UK’s largest housebuilders on various mixed-use developments.

Testimonials

Sam has provided good, clear legal advice which has been balanced with commerciality, and has always been keen to understand and deliver based on our strategic objectives; so as well as solid legal advice, we know it’s coming from a sensible practical perspective too.

The advice and service we’ve received from Sam and the wider team has been a different class. Sam is a credit to his firm. We expect things to move at pace and expect our chosen partners to be proactive on our behalf; Sam ticks both boxes easily.

More than anything, I’m pleased to say that I 100% trust Sam and his advice.”
