Linklaters has appointed Anton Cox as counsel, with responsibilty for further developing its Luxembourg real estate practice. Cox joined Linklaters in 2001, specialising early on in real estate law within the corporate real estate practice of the Brussels office. He has been part of the Luxembourg office since 2015. 

Real estate is becoming an increasingly important asset class, and the firm says that Anton has developed the necessarily wide range of skills based on his extensive experience in this field, from real estate acquisitions in Luxembourg -- creation of real and personal rights, assignment of immovable rights -- to financing related to these operations, environmental and urban planning, property litigation and the structuring of real estate projects and promotions.  The firm says that thanks to his knowledge and expertise, Linklaters Luxembourg can offer technically and commercially targeted solutions to their clients.
 
Anton also has extensive experience in the construction domain covering all aspects related to contract drafting, negotiating agreements with architects and contractors, and monitoring the participation in construction site meetings. His work has brought him in contact with some of the most important operations of the Luxembourg market in recent months.
 
Managing partner, Patrick Geortay, said he welcomes this appointment. "The appointment of Anton as a counsel is an acknowledgment by our global practice not only of his technical expertise but also of his capacity to develop the practice and its management, optimise records and his control over the commercial aspects of real estate."
