Alan Browning

Partner & Head of Commercial Property

Alan Browning is a Partner and Head of Commercial Property at Streathers Daynes Smith. He works regularly with landlords and tenants on new leases or assignments, supporting clients throughout the transactions. 

Whether a recent start up entering into their first lease, or an institutional investor landlord looking for assistance, Alan is able to tailor his advice and expertise to ensure client needs are met.

As well as expertise in Commercial Property, Alan also has vast experience in residential property. Alan and his team are able to assist with residential sales, purchases, remortgages and other transactions.

Alan’s wealth of knowledge and experience instils a sense of trust and security in his clients. He offers a personal approach that places high emphasis on communication and getting to know you or your business. Alan values working closely with clients to build strong, long-term relationships. Clients appreciate Alan’s attention to detail and willingness to find pragmatic solutions.

I never lose sight of the client needs and requirements. The legal elements should not get in the way of the wider goal, they should support and enhance the client’s position.

Alan’s approach is all about getting to know you or your business. Establishing your requirements as early as possible is best for getting an understanding as to where the transaction sits in relation to those needs.

Beyond the Law

 If  Alan wasn’t a solicitor then he says he would likely be a farmer. However, having grown up on a farm, the reality is that the work is incredibly challenging. Perhaps a small holding where Alan could live off the land.
