Charging
Winckworth Sherwood’s long-established charging team comprises eight specialist lawyers, with many years’ experience between them. We have many other lawyers available to boost resources if necessary, so we can cope with fluidity in our client’s timescales. We have developed long-term constructive relationships with the banks and trustees (for whom certain team members also act) who are regularly involved in social housing lending as well as their advisors – such as RBS, Barclays, Lloyds, Santander, THFC, Nationwide and M&G Trustees.
Our clients get an efficient, cost-effective and trustworthy service because we have adopted a systematic, team-based approach that enables us to adjust resource inputs quickly if a client’s timetable changes unexpectedly.
Our charging team follows a prescribed process to ensure consistency when completing charging projects. View an example of a project timeline for a charging project.
