Matthew Life - Partner - Residential Property - Wansbroughs Solicitors

Matthew is a Partner and heads our Residential Property team, handling a wide-range of residential property transactions – particularly in and around London, as well as locally. This includes work for a number of builders and residential property developers, dealing with both leasehold and freehold new-build developments.

After graduating from Liverpool University and originally qualifying as a corporate solicitor in London, Matthew joined Wansbroughs in 2013 and became a Partner in 2014.

Recent experience:

  • Acting on the purchase of London period flat for £3.5m.
  • Acting on a 30-unit new-build leasehold development.

Thank you for the absolutely excellent service you have given to help get the purchase complete. While being totally professional and clearly very experienced, you have also been approachable and friendly.

Matt Life is a speedy and excellent property lawyer.

Legal 500 (2023)

At times we found the process very challenging and difficult, but with your sensible and calm approach to everything thrown at us we felt we had an ally on our side.

Thank you for all your hard work. You have been absolutely brilliant!!

You have made what could have been an immensely stressful experience an absolute breeze. Thank you so much.

Matthew’s ability to navigate the twists and turns of conveyancing for the sale and purchase of two Grade II listed properties has been exemplary. Both transactions were fraught with complications – overage clauses, lost title pages, buyers dropping out, property defects however, Matthew handled each episode methodically, calming our nerves throughout, all while tying in completion for both properties meaning we could maintain our interest rate and move house on time. I would highly recommend Matthew.
