About

Provided by Trowers & Hamlins LLP

Our broad experience of working with government, local authorities and investors, and private companies means we are often the interface between public sector organisations and the partners they rely on to supply and deliver services.  From social care to infrastructure projects, housing, education and daily services like waste collection and disposal – we are their trusted guides with the legal expertise and commercial know how to find solutions.

Public sector clients increasingly ask us to help them steer a course through increasing regulation, and growing scrutiny. As legal experts, we are also perfectly placed to help them generate long-term revenue from their capital assets. Leading strategic reviews and setting objectives, establishing innovative new entities and helping to manage procurement, contracts and implement new ways of delivering services are our core skills.

Our commercial clients have a key role in delivering innovation, skills and investment in public services. We help them by offering the legal and commercial expertise they need to identify and unlock opportunities and win work.
