Public Sector Solicitors

Built up through many years of experience, Pannone’s dedicated Public Sector team of solicitors are well placed to provide specialist legal advice and assistance to public sector clients. We offer a full-service capability from a single source and our lawyers, from a cross-section of departments, have the necessary expertise and resources to meet a wide range of public sector client requirements.

The scale and complexity of the transactions we have advised on, means we are recognised as a leading adviser to the north-west public sector. Our extensive cross-departmental experience makes us the natural port-of-call for many public sector bodies. We have a sound understanding of local authority processes and requirements, recognising the unique issues and statutory obligations, concerns and constraints faced by public sector clients.

Combining several specialist departments - including Corporate, Commercial Property, Litigation, Banking, Construction and Employment - our well established Public Sector team focuses on delivering high quality legal services to local authorities and other public sector bodies. Recognising that decisions are not necessarily made on a purely commercial basis, we have substantial experience in matching the often-conflicting aims of the public and private sector to achieve effective solutions. Particular areas of specialism are:

• Property Acquisition, Development and Management
• Public / Private Partnerships and PFI
• Company Acquisitions and Sales
• Employment Advice
• Judicial Reviews and Litigation
• Statutory Powers
• Outsourcing / Major Commercial Contracts

Our Partners, many of whom are recognised legal experts in their respective fields, adopt an active, 'hands on' role, guaranteeing a high quality, reliable service. We take an active role as is required and are happy to work relatively independently on projects or other legal work, reporting back to our clients as required. In most cases though, our work on public sector projects is based around a close partnership, liaising with and complementing the strengths of in-house lawyers and other staff, as an integral part of the project team.

In doing this, we are able to build a complete picture of all relevant circumstances and client requirements, enabling us to provide the best possible advice and assistance.
