John Stephenson

Spear’s Review

BDB Pitmans’s John Stephenson is a veteran property lawyer in the residential landlord and tenant space, also advising managing agents and tenant management companies. ‘I try to get the best possible results,’ he said. ‘It’s about finding solutions which look at the client’s ultimate aim, rather than short-term fixes.’

With more than three decades of experience, Stephenson has recorded successes in several high-profile cases, such as Cadogan v 26 Cadogan Square Limited in the House of Lords and Day v Hosebay in the Supreme Court, as well as Sloane Stanley Trustees v Carey-Morgan and Stephenson in the Court of Appeal.

Outside work, Stephenson can be found either at Lord’s Cricket Ground, Fulham FC or his church, where he is treasurer.
