Businesses and Individuals
Matching our clients’ commercial objectives with expert lawyers is at the heart of what we do. Instructing the right lawyer is a crucial component of ensuring a positive outcome and yet many organisations still operate within the confines of a single law firm. Where the client requires more support and advice we work with them to ensure that the legal advice obtained is at all times commercial, timely, client focused and cost-effective.

Public sector organisations are under constant pressure to improve and demonstrate efficiency. The provision of legal services is an area where efficiency savings are clearly achievable. We work with a number of such organisations assisting them to drive down external costs through a variety of approaches including setting up panels of advisers, actively managing those panels to ensure maximum cost benefits and exploring opportunities for further savings through adopting shared services.

Does your business or organisation really know how much it spends on external lawyers, why it is doing so, whether or not there is duplication of advice and how to reduce overall spend in this area? Do you have the time or the legal knowledge to get to grips with this yourself? We are uniquely placed to assist clients with reviews in this area and once the review is completed to advise on putting in place arrangements to reduce the need for external lawyers and to ensure the most cost-effective solution when there is no alternative.
