Law firm expands real estate team with senior hire
Law firm Lester Aldridge has welcomed Zara Goh as a senior associate in its real estate team.
Goh has more than a decade of experience, specialising in commercial real estate, real estate finance, and residential property.
A multi-lingual solicitor fluent in English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Malay, she has a wealth of experience advising national and international corporate clients, developers, investors, and financial institutions on portfolio financing, sales, and acquisitions across a range of asset classes, including retail, office, industrial, and mixed-use developments.
Before joining Bournemouth-based Lester Aldridge, Goh worked at a prominent London city law firm, where she established and led the firm’s Asia desk, followed by a position at a regional firm.
Goh joins the specialised borrower real estate finance team, led by partner David Fanchi, which advises a wide range of borrowers, including developers, contractors, and investors, on refinancings, buy-to-let acquisitions, bridging, and portfolio properties.
“We are delighted to welcome Zara to our team,” said Fanchi.
“Her extensive real estate experience, international focus, and multi-lingual skills will be a tremendous asset to our clients as we continue to deliver bespoke and strategic advice tailored to their specific needs.”
Goh added: “I am excited to embark on this new chapter in my career by joining the respected Real Estate Department at Lester Aldridge. I look forward to furthering my legal practice at the firm and helping borrowers navigate the complexities of real estate financing with practical and commercially focused solutions.”
