Government & Public Sector
Public‑sector projects demand more than standard commercial expertise; they require a nuanced grasp of administrative law, rigorous governance, and robust auditing of every decision.
Ford Sumner Lawyers partners with central and local agencies, Crown entities, and publicly funded organisations to provide clear, practical government legal advice that supports transparency and public confidence.
Why Choose Ford Sumner Lawyers?
From drafting and negotiating government tenders and contracts to managing procurement risk, the legal terrain is highly prescriptive. Agencies must satisfy legislative mandates, manage tight budgets, and uphold the highest ethical standards, all while delivering critical services to the community.
We help clients balance these pressures, ensuring compliance with procurement rules, employment obligations, the Official Information Act, and sector‑specific regulations.
Drawing on our deep experience in public sector law, corporate law and governance, and dispute resolution, our team structures frameworks that withstand scrutiny and ensure best‑value outcomes.
Whether you need advice on contract formation, representation in a judicial review, or guidance on PPPs and infrastructure projects, we provide tailored legal services that minimise risk and maximise accountability.
By engaging Ford Sumner Lawyers, you gain a proactive partner committed to safeguarding public resources and delivering measurable results.
