Birmingham law firm welcomes real estate disputes partner

Leading full-service law firm Shakespeare Martineau has welcomed partner Bukola Obadun-Craigs to its Birmingham real estate disputes team.

Her particular interests include leasehold enfranchisement, lease extensions, right to manage, service charges disputes, and lease interpretation.

Having worked with the social housing sector for more than 20 years, Bukola has particular expertise in providing registered providers with support regarding injunctions, possessions, serious nuisance and anti-social behaviour, subletting, succession, and defending allegations of landlord repairs and obligations.

Bukola, who will be based in Birmingham but working with clients nationally, said: “I’ve followed Shakespeare Martineau’s growth journey since qualification. The firm has evolved and adapted accordingly, challenging outdated norms, which makes it stand out in a sea of stagnation.

“There has always been a magnetic pull towards Shakespeare Martineau as I believe it truly understands the intricate web of social housing from all aspects. It is a key player in advising the sector about catalysing dynamic change, offering thought-provoking solutions and unwaveringly supporting the sector, while challenging its place for residents and key stakeholders.”

Her appointment is the latest in a string of new partner hires as part of Shakespeare Martineau’s growth strategy, broadening its footprint both north and south.

Barry Jervis, partner and head of dispute resolution at Shakespeare Martineau, said: We are thrilled to welcome Bukola to the firm. Her market-leading technical knowledge and broad sector-specific experience will be a real asset to our real estate and social housing clients as we continue to support them thrive in an ever-evolving and rapidly-changing landscape.”

Shakespeare Martineau is proactively seeking talented people to join the firm on its growth journey, including mergers, team recruitment and lateral hires nationally.
