We have been named on Crown Commercial Service’s (CCS) Legal Panel for Government agreement (RM6360). Through the agreement’s Lot 1 – Legal Services, we will continue to provide general legal services to UK central Government departments, public sector bodies and other related entities.

Lot 1 of the framework agreement provides comprehensive legal services across a wide range of specialisms to support Government projects, regulatory compliance and dispute resolution. Lot 1 covers Core Legal Services and ensures the Government has access to expert legal guidance for its day-to-day legal matters, where full-service capability across specialisms is required to meet the Government’s core legal service demands.

Being named as a supplier on the agreement reflects our consistent provision of high-quality legal advice and our reputation for outstanding client service, with our collaborative approach and authentic, inclusive culture setting us apart as a dependable legal advisor to Government for over 20 years.

“We’re pleased to be named as a supplier to Lot 1 of the Legal Panel for Government. This is a testament to the depth and strength of our team and the quality of work we provide our public sector clients. We look forward to continuing our collaborative work with the Government and fellow panel advisors to support the Government’s legal needs and help deliver value for public money.”

John Houlden, Partner and Head of Public Sector

Our Public Sector team provides specialist legal advice across all aspects of Government contracting, public procurement, major projects, regulatory compliance, inquiries and litigation. The firm works with central Government departments, agencies and suppliers, and we have a comprehensive, cross-departmental team of lawyers—many of whom have worked within Government—with the knowledge and expertise to deliver practical legal solutions tailored to the unique requirements and responsibilities of central Government operations.

Crown Commercial Service supports the public sector to achieve maximum commercial value when procuring common goods and services. In 2023/24, CCS helped the public sector to achieve commercial benefits equal to £4.9 billion – supporting world-class public services that offer best value for taxpayers.
