Benefits we can offer you
We can advise you on existing and future legislation as it is proposed in Holyrood and Westminster, as well as the implications for future planning in the public sector and beyond.
We can also keep you up to date on developments in the courts and make sure you clearly understand the possible implications and any unintended consequences of case decisions in your area. Public and constitutional law reaches into many unexpected areas of law.
Our experts advise on constitutional and administrative matters, including human rights.
We also support clients to undertake litigation with public law challenges at its heart. Our litigation team handles many judicial reviews and statutory appeals, as well as litigation considering the extent of the rights of citizens and human rights.
