Hugh James
Legal Services
Hugh James is a top 100 UK law firm with offices in Cardiff, London, Southampton, Plymouth and Manchester. Our Business Clients Services teams work with over 50 clients in the wider public sector, including central and local government, government-sponsored organisations, educational and healthcare institutions, third sector organisations and social housing providers across England and Wales. We provide a full range of services to the wider public sector, covering every aspect of the law that might be required to help achieve an organisation’s social and commercial objectives. Many of our lawyers have previously worked in-house including in central and local government. This depth of expertise and understanding of the sector – the unique challenges, opportunities, political context and culture – enables us to add additional insight and value for our clients.
 
Our pricing approach recognises the challenges faced by our clients in the wider public sector, putting choice and flexibility first. We also offer secondments, as well as regular training and thought leadership. As the sector is currently anticipating significant upcoming changes to public procurement law, we’ve created a dedicated hub of resources and webinar series to help you prepare.
 
Clients can efficiently call off our services via a number of public sector frameworks, including the Welsh Government Commercial Delivery (WGCD) framework for legal services in Wales, and the Crown Commercial Services (CCS) Wider Public Sector Legal Services Panel in England and Wales.
