Public Services
Transforming public services over the coming decade is based on 'driving forward the next stage of reform and increasing investment while embedding value for money across government'. These key words encompass the challenge facing local authorities, government agencies, social landlords and all public interest entities that are funded or regulated by the State. It will be fairly daunting for public bodies to make a reality of Smart Procurement, Service Personalisation and System Transformation whilst achieving year-on-year 'cashable savings' and reducing their carbon footprint. What they don't need is for the essential legal implications and processes to be incomprehensible and burdensome. That’s where HBJ Gateley Wareing's Public Services Group can help. We assist public bodies to demystify the legal and contractual legal processes required to transform the way they work. Our team offers people with very senior front-line public services experience and lawyers who are at the top of their game in the skills relevant to the issues. As a full-service law firm we can cover most needs of local authorities, regional and executive agencies, non-departmental public bodies, universities, colleges and foundation schools, NHS and other healthcare providers registered social landlords, charities and quasi-governmental or regulated entities. Those needs may encompass Governance, Employment, Contracts, Banking, Charity Law, Construction, State Aid, Freedom of Information, Property, Housing, Regeneration, Dispute Resolution, Health and Safety and Regulatory Issues. From our 6 offices across the UK (and Dubai if needed) a specialist team can be brought together to match any kind and size of public services legal requirement. We are sensitive to and knowledgeable about the internal dynamics of public sector entities and work with our clients to involve their stakeholder base. We are appointed to a number of public sector Legal Panels and Frameworks, so may well be pre-qualified for work without the need for time-consuming due diligence.
