Outsourcing

We have an enviable reputation among some of the biggest names in the public and private sector. We've advised on outsourcing every type of service, from cleaning and catering, to IT and HR, and estates management to off-shoring.

We've completed domestic and international deals from £1m to £1bn. Our clients include the NHS and local authorities, major financial institutions and industry giants across all sectors.

Seeing the bigger picture

We know that successful outsourcing involves far more than just legal expertise. We look beyond to the business drivers and the regulatory environment. We focus on scope of service, service standards, employment issues, price and governance, and how to begin and end the arrangement smoothly.

We know what works, because we’ve made it happen many times. We've advised on sourcing strategies, deal structures and pricing, run procurement competitions, created data rooms and organised due diligence.

We've worked with multi-disciplinary teams in Europe and the United States, project-managed lawyers in other jurisdictions and managed the transfer of third party contracts. We've also provided expert training to those at the sharp end of outsourcing arrangements.

Getting outsourcing right gives you greater control over those services, not less. Meaning the legal advice you outsourced to us is likely to pay for itself handsomely, with a cost-effective deal at minimum risk.

What our clients say

"Always available, always prompt, very proactive in training, and able to recognise problems before we even realise there are any."
