Government and the Public Sector
A core practice focus of CA Legal is the public sector, both in the UK and abroad. We have been appointed to the UK Office of Government Commerce’s Panel of lawyers.
CA Legal has an in-depth understanding of the commercial issues faced by governments, public sector bodies, civil servants, regulatory bodies and state enterprises by virtue of our considerable experience working for and alongside various UK Government departments and other public sector entities in both the UK and abroad.
We advise public bodies on the drafting, interpretation and implementation of their legal powers and responsibilities, financial controls, resource accounting, best value and transparency and related issues.

- Administrative and Constitutional Law
- Government Finance and Investments
- Public sector commercial operations and contracts
- Freedom of Information and Data Protection Law compliance
- IT law, Intellectual Property and Internet Law
- Public Procurement, Tendering and Outsourcing
