Lauren Meade

I graduated from the University of Southampton in 2010 with First Class Honours, ranking top two in my year. After London law school and training in Southampton, I have gained over a decade’s experience resolving property disputes, with a particular focus on commercial landlord and tenant work and large-scale portfolio management.  I joined Porter Dodson LLP’s property litigation team in February 2026.  

I act for a diverse range of clients, from local authorities and public sector bodies to developers, private landlords and institutional landlords with extensive portfolios. I also provide strategic advice to retail tenants managing multiple units. By working closely with surveyors and other professionals, I ensure a cohesive approach to protecting my clients' commercial interests.

Clients come to me for clear, proactive advice on how best to manage risk and protect the value of their property interests. The emphasis is on getting to the key issues quickly, explaining options in straightforward terms and steering matters towards practical, cost effective outcomes.

Beyond my legal practice, I prioritise quality time with my husband and two young children.  We enjoy frequent trips to Bristol visiting friends and extended family. I enjoy getting lost in a good book, catching a show, weekend walks in the countryside and (often long overdue) dinner with friends.
