Overcome your biggest challenges with Practical Law
Multifaceted responsibilities
Government lawyers don’t have the option of “turning down business” and must handle a broad and diverse range of legal issues. Whether defending a Section 1983 case, understanding the nuances of the 1st Amendment, or navigating procurement and fiscal law, being able to respond to matters efficiently is critical. Practical Law has the expert-written practice guidance to help you take them on quickly and with confidence.
Flat budgets and limited resources
Practicing law is even more difficult when budgets are flat, and you don’t have all the resources to do your best work. Despite these challenges, government lawyers still must deliver results. Practical Law gives you access to succinct, expert-written practice guidance that will help you accomplish more in less time.
Losing institutional knowledge
Government legal offices are typically lean, so retirements and other losses of institutional knowledge can be especially painful. With Practical Law, you can rely on our team of 650+ full-time attorney-editors globally who create up-to-date resources like forms and templates, checklists, and practitioner tips that get you up to speed fast and with confidence.
