Henry Cecil
Spear’s Review
Described by peers as ‘living and breathing the countryside’, Henry Cecil is a leading property solicitor. He often operates at the crossroads of luxury property and rural life, and works with an array of landowners and estates on the sometimes thorny issues facing farms and country houses.
Cecil, who joined Forsters in 2018 and currently serves as head of rural land and business, is adept at advising clients on succession planning, estate planning and development agreements. This is partly thanks to his own personal involvement in managing estates – experience which he regularly brings to bear for the benefit of his clients.
He also has a strong grounding in London-based prime property transactions, and holds a number of trustee roles.
