What our connections say
-
I worked with Emily to resolve a large number of rights of light issues for a high-profile redevelopment project in central London where I acted as developer. This involved assessment of injuries to residential and commercial properties and negotiating settlements alongside other strategies to remove risk to the project. The affected parties consisted of residential landlords spread across the globe, commercial tenants and large institutional investors. The project was brought in on time and below budget despite these challenges.

Emily’s professional, proactive but personable approach has made my experience of working with her on the complex subject of rights of light enjoyable and productive. I trust that Century Associates will provide the same level of service and hope to work with Emily again soon.

Century Associates offers an approach to Daylight, Sunlight and Rights of Light consultancy that appeals to developers and development consultants alike when dealing with risks affecting their proposed developments. I have found Emily to be dedicated, proactive and approachable, with a passion for her specialism. Having also worked with Emily in an adjoining owner capacity, I trust that she will always seek to do the very best for her clients whether acting on behalf of a developer or neighbour.
