A well-known and highly respected North West solicitor, Alaisdhair has always been fascinated by the ins and outs of property! At times, commercial property is the primary business of an organisation while, for other businesses, they need premises to run their business. Alaisdhair has acted for clients in hospitality and leisure, retail automotive, manufacturing, education, not-for-profit, pharmaceuticals, and rural economies. He is also experienced in property finance and has been the relationship partner on the major lending banks’ panels.
Known for his love of variety, Alaisdhair has advised a wide range of property developers with turnovers from £5m to £150m whose businesses have included residential and commercial developments throughout the North West. Needless to say, he’s been at the forefront of urban regeneration. His ability to manage clients in multiple locations and coordinate various legal needs brought him to the attention many years ago of large automotive groups who recognised his property finance and financing expertise which is integral in their business models. Another string to his bow!
With a passion for the Lake District, Alaisdhair and his family moved to Witherslack just before Covid and love local life in the Lake District. He regards working in Kendal as part of a wonderful work/life balance and, when not in the office, can be found in his beautiful Lakeland garden which has been renovated to perfection and occasionally open to charity and to support the local community.

Mitch enjoys studying. He completed his A levels in Maths, Business and Economics at the Queen Katherine School and took an interest in Temple Heelis’ business administration apprenticeship at Kendal College.
Mitch has now completed his Business Administration Level 3 qualifications which has included setting up a portfolio of work and skills. In his role at Temple Heelis, he supports qualified lawyers and specialist paralegals in drafting letters to clients, and undertaking legal administration for Wills, Powers of Attorney and Trusts. He also liaises with clients to make arrangements for meetings and reviews. Mitch gets a real buzz out of working with many different people and helping them protect their assets for future generations.
No two days are the same for Mitch and he loves the variety of work and the team spirit which exists in one of the region’s leading Private Client departments. For the past year, he has been a key member of a special ‘working party’ which has developed a new estate planning programme and will be the programme’s primary administrator for clients involved in the service.
A keen football player, Mitch can be found on a local pitch at least twice a week and enjoys meeting friends and outdoor pursuits when not ‘kicking the ball’.
