Government & Public

Our public sector clients get the best of both worlds

In a market characterised by ever-changing political conditions, our lawyers give you the strategic edge you need to succeed. We offer tailored legal advice to government departments and statutory authorities, thanks to our understanding of legislative and policy frameworks and our commercial approach to projects and issues.

Not every law firm understands government and how it works. With our strong presence in Asia and deep relationships across the region, we know the public sector well.

As a client, we are the go-to firm for:

• Technology and Data
• Corporate Advisory 
• Disputes and Commissions of Inquiry
• Law Reform
• Infrastructure Projects
• Emerging Issues - open data, innovation, blockchain, smart contracts and financial market reform

Foreign companies, state-owned entities and sovereign wealth funds looking to invest in Asia call on our specialist legal capabilities in foreign investment policy and our track record of successfully navigating cross-border investments.

We balance public interest and accountability, while providing pragmatic solutions.

Public and private expertise

As a government sector client, you benefit from same the full spectrum of legal services we offer to corporate clients, as well as services that meet the specific needs of government organisations. And unlike our competitors, our lawyers work with both private and public sector firms.

Our clients include bodies and departments at all levels of government (national, state and local), as well as government-owned companies, agencies and statutory bodies.
