Local Government

Our specialist lawyers understand the cultural and political dimensions of local government and the importance of transparency and reputation.

Our multi-disciplinary Local Government Team consists of over 250 highly experienced lawyers, based across our offices in Chelmsford, Ipswich, Norwich, Cambridge, and London.

The Team understands the pressure on local government, and work collaboratively with clients to ensure that objectives are achieved on time and to budget. Our lawyers can assist in a range of areas from corporate governance, statutory powers and procurement to subsidy control, housing regeneration and highways.

Our experts are client and solution focused, working seamlessly with councils to deliver proactive, practical, and pragmatic advice. We act for county councils, unitary authorities, London boroughs, district councils and parish councils.

We are a supplier on the Crown Commercial Service Public Sector Legal Services Framework RM6240, the KCS Procurement Services Legal Services Framework, and the London Boroughs’ Legal Alliance Framework.
