Public Law – Regulatory
- Our Public Law – Regulatory department advises public and private sector clients on public contracts and procurement and has specialist expertise in regulated industry sectors.
Our department advises public entities and private corporations on public contracts (concession-type contracts, land-use agreements, PPP and other complex financing transactions) and public procurement. We have particular strength in leading work for highly-regulated industry players including in the areas of energy & natural resources, telecoms and the environment. We also offer significant competition law strength for each of these sectors. Our department represents clients before the administrative and constitutional courts, as well as in their dealings with the relevant regulatory authorities. We leverage our in-depth knowledge of public-private sector relationships to guide French and overseas-based private sector companies and public authorities in the full range of projects governed by public law.
