Goodwin Procter have announced the addition of Catriona Berman as partner in the firm’s real estate capital markets practice in London. 

Catriona, who will join Goodwin from Macfarlanes LLP, advises on a wide range of real estate transactions, including high-profile acquisitions, management of estates, asset management agreements, structuring of acquisitions, and property holding. She will join following completion of her notice period.

“We are delighted that Catriona has chosen to join our robust and growing real estate team in London,” says David Evans, London office chair. “Her experience in all aspects of commercial real estate transactions, in combination with our existing team headed by Joe Conder, will see us continuing to deliver on our commitment to provide a market-leading European real estate bench of scale and depth.” 

“As our deal activity across the European real estate markets continues to grow, Catriona’s arrival adds to the strength of our high-end, cross-border real estate team that serves clients on increasingly sophisticated transactions,” says Gil Menna, chair of Goodwin’s real estate capital markets practice. “We are excited that Catriona has chosen to join us, and we look forward to her contribution to the stellar growth of our London office.”
