LCP part of M Core, is pleased to announce internal promotions within our in-house legal team.

Former Legal Director Amy James has been promoted to the role of General Counsel & Head of Legal (UK).

In addition, Sophie Faulkner has been promoted to the role of Associate Legal Director. She will be tasked with developing portfolio wide initiatives that support the legal team and wider business, whilst retaining responsibility for all real estate transactions that arise from a defined portfolio of properties.

Amy James said: “LCP has gone from strength to strength since I joined the company in 2007, and I have been delighted to oversee the growth of the in-house legal offer from a team of two solicitors to a department of 15 in my previous role as Legal Director. With the department now well established, and represented in all of our UK offices, I’m very pleased to move into the role of General Counsel, and advise the business more broadly as it continues to grow its £2.4 billion UK portfolio.”

James Buchanan, Group Managing Director, said: “It’s an exciting time for LCP, as it continues with its focus on acquisitions and strategic growth. We are committed to ensuring that the very best people are retained within the company, who can help us to thrive in a challenging real estate market.
