Creating a spirit of collaboration with our clients
At Forsters, we thrive on playing an integral part in and adapting to a rapidly changing market. We are all encouraged to be fully rounded professionals by immersing ourselves in our markets, connecting to our communities and the sustainability landscape. Trends around ESG are as much a part of the market as any other micro or macro-economic dynamics. We aim to make a positive impact through our relationships with our clients and business partners through our legal services alongside collaborative learning and knowledge sharing initiatives.
Supporting the Sector Race to Net Zero
Sector Race to Net Zero is a cross-practice campaign that explores how different sectors are placed on the Net Zero journey and the challenges unique to them. The campaign is led by our Commercial Real Estate (CRE) team, working closely with our dedicated Planning, Construction, Dispute resolution and Finance teams, specialising in various sectors including Build to Rent, Building Safety, Hotels, Later Living, Industrial and Logistics, Retail, Occupiers and Student Accommodation. ESG considerations transcend these sectors and our cross-practice approach allows us to deliver joined-up commercial advice to clients at all stages of their ESG journey.

Driving the Natural Capital agenda
At Forsters, we are passionate about the opportunities that Natural Capital promises for the rural economy, the environment, and for the wealth of social and economic benefits that will come with it. The Rural Land and Business team works closely with colleagues across the firm, drawing on experts in planning, private wealth and tax planning, dispute resolution, and corporate structuring to deliver the highest quality advice to landowners and land managers to be part of these new markets. The team’s expertise in this area is reflected in their public appearances for organisations including the Agricultural Law Association, speaking on the future role of Conservation Covenants, and for the Hong Kong Association speaking on Natural Capital investment opportunities.
