Coronavirus and Commercial Property Webinar

We recently had the pleasure of welcoming Paul Hannam and John Kelly from CCLA to participate in the first of a new series of Arlingclose Webinars, this time on the subject of Coronavirus and Commercial Property.

An excellent discussion was had, as we covered the commercial property sector backdrop, and how things differ today from 2008; what proactive approaches responsible landlords are taking, and what the future holds for the sector.

Please keep a look out on the Arlingclose website and in our regular email updates for future webinars in the series.
