Certainly the client
base is diverse; but it
works because we
personalise the service.
Public bodies & institutions
Local authorities and other public bodies have very specific issues. You need to know that you are getting sound legal advice from a lawyer who understands the context of statutory obligations, budgetary constraints and the governance and accountability framework. We blend commercial expertise with in-depth knowledge and public sector experience, all within one firm.
The team prides itself on its ability to provide clients with work of the highest quality and an in depth understanding of public sector values and organisational culture. Our lawyers operate from a cross-section of departments within the firm and have the necessary expertise to meet a wide range of public sector client requirements. Our understanding of the needs of such clients puts us in an excellent position to add significant value to the public bodies and institutions for which we work.
We currently act for a large number of public sector organisations, including local authorities, government agencies, trusts, colleges and schools, offering a full range of legal services. In particular we have extensive experience in large-scale commercial and residential development work, environment and planning law and local government litigation.
Our team is led by John Shephard and he would be keen to hear from you and would welcome the opportunity to talk to you about the difference our team can make. To contact John simply send him an email or call 01604 233233.
