Legal Services Lincolnshire

Legal Services Lincolnshire is a shared service between the county council and six district and borough councils, created over 10 years ago. 

We are a specialist provider of legal services to the public sector. We give practical advice clients can understand. 

Legal Services Lincolnshire can assist our clients in addressing legislative, economic and political developments, driving improvement in services, value for money and delivering change.

We have vast experience of supporting major projects and coordinating our expertise to provide a seamless service.

Our team consists of experts who have worked for public bodies for many years. We also have lawyers with considerable private practice knowledge. This allows us to satisfy the need of our broad public sector client base.  We understand how the public sector operates and what are the demands put on services in terms of raising performance levels while keeping costs down.

Our fees are highly competitive with those charged by private practice. We understand the need of public bodies to reduce  their expenditure and make sure that work is done at the most appropriate level.
