Administrative & public law

Public law comprises several interlinking practice areas that concern relationships between people, government and other public bodies.

Agriculture & rural issues

It is unsurprising that some of the country's strongest agricultural law practices are to be found in rural regions.

Aviation/aerospace

Aviation lawyers provide commercial, regulatory and insurance advice and litigation services to the world's airlines, manufacturers and financiers.

Civil liberties & human rights

Human rights law broadly refers to the fundamental rights and freedoms of the Human Rights Act 1998.

Clinical negligence

Sponsored by Bolt Burdon Kemp LLP. Clinical or medical negligence lawyers advise in relation to instances of injury or death arising from incorrect or sub-standard medical treatment or diagnosis.

Commercial property/real estate

Sponsored by Mills & Reeve LLP. Commercial property lawyers work on a wide range of transactions including offices, retail developments and infrastructure projects.

Company & commercial

Commercial lawyers operate at the nexus where law meets business, facilitating revenue growth and managing risk.

Sponsored by Charles Russell Speechlys LLP. Contentious construction work involves the resolution of disputes while non-contentious work involves drafting and negotiating contracts and advising on projects.

Corporate finance/mergers & acquisitions

Sponsored by Baker McKenzie. Corporate M&A involves the combining of companies or assets through mergers, where two companies combine to form a new entity, or acquisitions, where one company takes over another.

Corporate tax

Virtually all commercial transactions have tax implications. Tax is thus an important practice area for any major law firm.

Crime

Criminal solicitors advise and appear in court on behalf of both accused persons and the prosecution.

Defamation/reputation management

In this area of legal practice, clients generally fall into two categories: the rich or famous and the media.
