Since 1st January 2021, the Litigation Group has continued to provide services to the majority of government departments, including the Department for International Trade and ‘UK Export Finance’, executive agencies, and many non-departmental public bodies.

The Group’s work encompasses litigation in public and private law as well as supporting public inquiries and acting in Inquests. This has involved, amongst other work, attending in a wide range of courts, including the Coroners’ Courts, the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal, the Royal Courts of Justice and the Supreme Court. Their Employment and Commercial Groups similarly provide litigation services to the majority of government departments and have done so in the period in question.
