It has been nearly 18 months since the Building Safety Act gained Royal Assent in April 2022.
Join external speakers and lawyers from our property litigation and real estate team for a seminar, drinks and networking opportunity. This panel discussion will cover how various parts of the Act have been operating, what this means for landlords, developers and commercial tenants, including a case study of the first Remediation Order granted for historical building defects and the challenges the new higher-risk buildings regime brings to the property sector.
