Cater Leydon Millard (CLM), a specialist employment law firm, part of the WorkNest group, has been named as a supplier on Crown Commercial Service’s (CCS) Public Sector Legal Services Framework (contract RM6240).

The new Public Sector Legal Services Framework will run from October 2022 to September 2026. This framework has been established to provide simple and compliant access to a range of legal services by Local and Regional Government, health, education, emergency services, third sector and social housing organisations.

CLM has been appointed for Lot 2a, Regional Service Provision – covering England and Wales. Their contracted specialism is employment law. CLM currently advises many health and education sector organisations, and its appointment to CCS’s Framework recognises its strong offering to the public sector.

Crown Commercial Service supports the public sector to achieve maximum commercial value when procuring common goods and services. In 2021/22, CCS helped the public sector to achieve commercial benefits equal to £2.8 billion – supporting world-class public services that offer best value for taxpayers.

Lisa Harris, Associate Director at CLM, says, “We are thrilled to be appointed again to this prestigious framework. Our selection further confirms our specialist expertise in employment law and our strong public sector credentials. The public sector is a key focus for our firm, and we look forward to continuing to work closely with our public sector clients and developing new relationships within the sector, providing practical employment law advice and solutions to their challenges.”
