David Townend, BA Law (Director)

Shortly after qualifying in London, David moved to the Lake District – primarily to pursue his love of rock-climbing – and joined a firm with offices in Ambleside and Windermere where he was a partner until 1988. He then left the law for nine years and worked for a number of companies involved in land development, the leisure industry and special needs education. In 1997, David returned to practice, rejoining his old firm which by then had merged with other firms and grown in size. Since that time, David has been based in Kendal and has worked almost exclusively on commercial matters, undertaking business sales and purchases, commercial property transactions, and a considerable amount of landlord and tenant work. His particular interests are in the manufacturing and leisure/tourism sectors. He also has significant experience in site acquisitions and disposals, for both residential and commercial developments. David’s previous involvement in businesses outside the law has proved invaluable in gaining a real understanding of how his clients work, thus ensuring that they get relevant and practical advice from him.
