Administrative and Constitutional

Our lawyers offer advice and representation to developers and investors, particularly in terms of planning and regional policy law for major projects. Our private clients also benefit from our work for the public sector: to us, authorities are not the enemy in the war on red tape but valued partners for the resolution of problems. We offer clients a creative, progressive administrative and constitutional practice. Many of our lawyers have former experience as state attorneys and government officials, allowing us to provide personal insight into how the government operates. We have also made groundbreaking challenges to administrative decisions made at all levels of government. We can help with: Administrative litigation and advice – Pioneering the development of administrative law principles in administrative litigation; initiating innovative claims against governmental authorities. Administrative contracts – Assisting clients in negotiations and dealings relating to administrative contracts with governmental agencies; providing advice regarding arbitration under the terms of administrative contracts; advising clients regarding the provisions of administrative contracts under the current regime of administrative law. Constitutional law – Challenging specific laws and by-laws on the basis of their constitutionality; providing flexible and commercially appropriate advice to clients to help ensure the most satisfactory commercial outcome. As a law firm working everyday in interpreting and applying complex laws, we know the importance of enforceable laws. We are passionate about using our professional expertise to give resonance to human rights; to ensure that they are not 'just words'. We advise commercial clients on their human rights policies and applicability to their business of instruments such as the European Convention on Human Rights and the Charter of Fundamental Rights.
