EDUCATION AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT
LAWYERS

Our education and local government team is a dedicated resource of professionals who have significant experience of advising local authorities on major projects and leading key programmes.

With members of our team having worked in-house as local authority lawyers, we understand the many sensitivities and complexities of local government and make ourselves available for informal discussions or to act as a sounding board for new ideas.

Experience

The team are experienced in advising on general local government law issues including:

Joint committees and powers
Procurement
Local authority finance and governance
Joint venture and incremental partnership structures
Property portfolios (local asset-based vehicles)
Regeneration and social housing
Infrastructure
Waste
Education
Outsourcing
Technology projects

Because of our specialist focus, we regularly provide training to local authorities as well as providing tailored in-house training sessions if requested.

We act for a wide range of local authorities nationally and are panel advisers to several local authorities, providing a breadth and depth of expertise many other law firms are not able to match.
