I joined the firm in 2004, am Head of Land & Development and became an Equity Partner in April 2017. I am also the Resident Partner of the firm’s Marlborough and Swindon offices.
I head up Awdry Law’s Land & Development Department and have over 12 years’ experience in a range of real estate matters, with particular expertise in site acquisitions and disposals, option agreements, development and strategic land agreements, property investment, joint ventures, plot sales and finance matters. I also have extensive experience in Commercial Property, Agricultural Property and complex and/or prime Residential Property matters. I qualified as a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives in 2010 and as a Solicitor in 2014, with a Distinction in the Legal Practice Course.
I pride myself in being a dealmaker and adopt a dynamic and collaborative approach to transactions. I have a wide portfolio of clients, to include developers, landowners, lenders and investors, with an excellent team around me.
I am an avid golfer and am always striving to lower my handicap (often unsuccessfully). I enjoy watching most sports, often accompanied by my children, and am particularly passionate about Liverpool Football Club and Bath Rugby.
“We work with Tim Hotchkiss and his team on the majority of our property transactions covering acquisition, sale and build agreements. Tim’s Land & Development team’s attention to detail, proactive nature and responsiveness has always kept us coming back for more and we see Awdry Law as a very important part of the team here at Sherbourne Developments.”
Bruce O’Grady, Managing Director of Sherbourne Developments Group Limited.
“I’ve been working with Tim and his team over the last 5 years with over 40 transactions completed during that time. I couldn’t imagine working with anyone else. The team is efficient, effective and personable and have truly had my back. I thoroughly enjoy working with them.”
