Our public advocacy team provides legal advice to clients on their engagement with government, parliamentarians, regulators and the media
We can help with all aspects of preparation for select committees, congressional committees and public inquiries, including drafting written evidence, preparing to give oral evidence and advising on the process and legal powers of these bodies.
Our London team includes Alison Saunders, the former Director of Public Prosecution for England & Wales, who has extensive experience of preparing for and appearing at Parliamentary select committees, and Jonathan Jones, former Treasury Solicitor (the most senior legal official in the UK government) with decades of experience of advising ministers, preparing legislation, setting up public inquiries and giving evidence to parliamentary committees.
We are supported by the knowledge and experience of our International Advisory Group. This includes former British Foreign Secretary Lord Hague of Richmond, Michael Diekmann, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Allianz SE, Tom Glocer, the former CEO of Thomson Reuters and founder and Managing Partner of Angelic Ventures, and Meghan L. O’Sullivan, the Jeane Kirkpatrick Professor of the Practice of International Affairs and Director of the Geopolitics of Energy Project at Harvard University’s Kennedy School.

We constantly monitor policy developments in the EU and our dedicated team closely follows emerging legislation and thinking in the EU institutions. We help clients anticipate developments, develop responses to these and deploy their legal perspectives effectively.
