While undertaking his own caseload, Andrew will also focus on developing the social purpose law firm’s property team and client base, which includes The Riverside Group and Citizen Housing Group. 

Andrew brings over 40 years legal experience to ACS, spanning roles as partner at Wright Hassall LLP and Shakespeare Martineau. Andrew specialises in supporting housing associations and local authorities on matters including land acquisition, development, sale and rental.
