Housing Management & Litigation

A trusted adviser to clients

Karl is head of our Housing Management & Litigation Team, advising social and private sector landlords, managing agents, retail lenders, fixed charge receivers and asset managers on all areas of residential landlord and tenant law.

Karl is recognised as an expert on Housing Law. He says, “my practice involves a great deal of client interaction. It’s that element of my work that I enjoy the most, along with the positive outcomes my team and I achieve on a daily basis”.

His approach to client work is to build a ‘trusted adviser’ relationship, so that his client’s see him as an integral part of their team, not just an external adviser.

Straightforward and clear advice

Karl’s ability to achieve results is often attributed to his calm and measured approach, which also helps build bridges and achieve the desired outcomes in what can be quite contentious scenarios.

In complex cases, it can be challenging for clients to understand their legal and commercial position, so Karl always tries to keep his advice straightforward and clear, navigating problems to reach solutions with a minimum of fuss.

Describing his working style as diligent, approachable, straightforward and communicative, Karl’s partnering approach with clients and other stakeholders is very much in line with life at Walker Morris, where positive contributions are harnessed to achieve the best possible outcomes.

With a keen eye for detail and a good observer of people, Karl is well-suited to a career in law and he thrives on the interaction with people that the profession demands.

“If I’ve got a new case that I’m not quite sure about, I’ll pick up the phone and speak to Karl. We’ll talk about it together. The way my role works, there isn’t anyone else I can speak to about things, so I really value having Karl to talk to. Sometimes I feel like I’m on the phone to him every day. It is a close relationship and I really value that.”
