Public law services include legal advice, litigation, and policy analysis related to the government. Public law governs the relationship between the government and citizens, as well as between different government branches and institutions. We understand the constitutional principles of government accountability and transparency and a public procurement system which is fair, equitable, transparent, competitive and cost-effective.

“We ensure that Public Bodies act lawfully, rationally and fairly.”

Public law cuts across multiple practice areas which allows us to add capacity and value to the firm’s existing offering through collaboration and focused client servicing when the state and the private sector do business together. Through a public law lens, we have advised clients in the following industries: banking and finance, basic education, construction, electronic communications, early childhood development, energy, electricity, mining,  private and public higher education, transport and logistics, strategic oil reserves, human settlements, media, electoral issues, real estate and pharmaceuticals.
