Our History

Land Law was founded by Angus Whyte in 1998; Angus believed it should be possible to deliver outstanding city centre quality legal services to clients for fair and reasonable fees by cutting past the bureaucracy and overheads that can plague larger firms. He set up Land Law on 1 June 1998 to prove the point – and over 25 years later the current partners continue to drive the firm forward with the same values.

FOR SALE – Nelson’s Column… Beware Property Fraud

You may have heard the tall tales about Arthur Ferguson, the alleged con artist famous for “selling” English national monuments to American tourists in the 1920s. If the stories are to be believed, armed only with his wits and acting prowess, he posed as an agent of the British Government and sold Nelson’s column for £6,000 and took down payments of £1,000 against Big Ben and £2,000 against Buckingham Palace. We will probably never know whether the stories about Arthur are real or fictional. But what we do know is that property fraud is unfortunately very real and alive and kicking in the UK today.
