The public sector is a cornerstone of our societies and economies. Understanding how dealing with public law entities differs from private entities and the impact of new or changing regulation has always been an important aspect of business life. It is even more critical with public entities cutting costs, privatizing and selling assets and turning to or away from public-private partnerships.

We are familiar with the legal aspects of public services and understand how the regulations concerning, for example, public procurement and the openness of government have to be taken into account in the projects. We help our clients to understand and navigate in the Finnish legislative and regulatory landscape and provide clear, concise and actionable advice to arm our public sector clients with the confidence to make defensible decisions that achieve their objectives while minimizing legal and reputational risk.

We advise public organizations ranging from cities, municipalities, wellbeing services counties and public agencies to authorities, universities, and hospitals, advising on a full spectrum of matters that our public sector clients face.

• Public procurement
• Litigation and mediation
• Land use, zoning and construction
