We are a full service firm and so will be able to support you across all of your requirements. We help our clients by providing competitive and clear fee structures, and are confident that our approach to feeing will be compatible with your requirements.
Commitment to the public sector
Our team has been providing commitment, clear advice and bespoke services to the public sector for decades. We use this experience to drive improvements and to look for more efficient ways in which to provide legal services. We employ high level people directly from the public sector with hands-on experience of the challenges our clients are required to meet. We also invest in specialised technology to help us deliver solutions in the right way for our clients.
Clear pricing and advice
We have made a commitment to our clients, which appears in our terms of business, that our clients need not pay any invoice which they were not expecting. We see this as a key point of distinction, which sets us apart from our competitors.
It is also about providing advice to clients in clear terms, with recommendations on options to proceed and how best to manage any potential legal and reputational risks. Clear legal advice which is readily understood by our clients is at the heart of what we do and the depth of our expertise and experience in the provision of such clear advice to public sector clients is unrivalled.
We thoroughly enjoy working with our clients in the public sector and appreciate the extremely valuable service they provide whilst ensuring that public money is apportioned appropriately against a backdrop of intense scrutiny and accountability. We give excellent value for money by adhering to competitive and transparent fee proposals whilst also looking for more efficient ways in which to provide legal services, spreading cost risk and offering greater certainty and transparency.
