Law firms ranked by client reviews
Privatization covers transferring ownership or management of utility assets and services from the public to private sector providers, and the related regulatory and procurement frameworks. A solicitor in this area helps structure the sale or split, drafts and negotiates sale and service contracts, advises on competition controls, and coordinates regulatory approvals with bodies such as Ofwat, BEIS and the CMA. They also manage due diligence, risk allocation, and public-interest considerations that arise when transferring essential public services to private operators.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The work involves complex regulatory regimes, competition law considerations, and multi-party negotiations. It includes drafting and negotiating long-term supply or concession agreements, structuring divestitures, and addressing public-interest safeguards to ensure compliant, transparent transfers that withstand regulatory scrutiny and market challenges.
