Langleys York strengthens renewables expertise

Langleys Solicitors LLP has strengthened its renewables energy team with the appointment of Nathan Bilton.

A member of the commercial unit at Langleys in York, Nathan advises a range of companies and organisations on supply agreements, incorporation of companies in the renewables field, and on the aspects of intellectual property encountered by such organisations.

He joined Langleys earlier this year after a period living and working in New Zealand.

Renewables is a growing area of work for Langleys with the six-strong team advising landowners and farmers on all types of projects including wind farms and turbines, solar parks, biomass boilers and anaerobic digestion schemes.

The team is led by Tim Craig who is also head of construction at Langleys, based in the York office. The other members are Andrew Fearn, head of agriculture; Sarah Miles, partner in commercial property; Francoise Vandale, senior associate in private client; and Jeremy Scott, partner in regulatory.

Langleys hosted a recent ‘Making the Most of Renewables’ seminar in partnership with agents George F White, Barclays and chartered accountants Duncan & Toplis.

Tim Craig said: “The seminar demonstrated the considerable and growing interest in renewables projects among landowners and farmers and how important it is to seek advice from professionals to be sure of reaping the benefits of a renewables scheme and avoiding potential pitfalls.”
