Local Government
We have worked with various local governments on a range of legal matters including employment law, contract reviews, risk management, dispute resolution, and more.
We understand the very public nature of local government business. The risks and obligations of this underpin our advice to you.
We also understand the importance of local government budgets and procurement approvals. We are happy to work within those parameters. For each job, we will agree on a scope of services and costs. Fixed fee and hourly rate options are available. We will always respect and adhere to your strict local government deadlines without compromising on the quality of our work.
