Kirsty Rogerson provides advice in relation to complex real estate development transactions. She has advised on a number of City of London developments throughout their project life, from initial site assembly and purchase, through the construction process, to forward funding and/or lettings to high-profile occupiers. Kirsty also has led several developments in more wide-ranging sectors, such as film studios, data centers, hotels, logistics, infrastructure, and life sciences with a particular interest in how energy transition, utility and grid connection, and ESG (environmental, social, and governance) issues impact these assets.

Kirsty has developed a particular focus on the provision of finance — regularly acting for traditional lenders and alternative capital providers in relation to development financing and high-value investment portfolios. This commonly includes advising clients on pan-European development financings.

Her recent experience includes acting for BREDS (part of the Blackstone Group) in the provision of funds for the joint venture purchase of the Network Rail portfolio of railway arches in London, advising PW Real Estate Fund III (advised by Aermont) on lettings and real estate matters connected with film studios, and advising Greystar on the development of Central London build-to-rent accommodations and student housing.

Kirsty has been recognized in The Legal 500 directory as a "Rising Star" and as a "Next Generation Lawyer."
