Devon Chambers has traditionally acted both for and against local authorities in the eclectic mix of legal disciplines that frequently involve local authorities. We have continuously developed our team so that we are able to meet not only the changing legal issues that confront Local Authorities but also the requirements and needs of those practising in this area, combining professionalism and specialist knowledge with economic efficiency and a friendly informal approach. It is for these reasons that we are well regarded by the local authorities and solicitors that use us.

The work that is covered by the Local Authority Team includes:

Environmental, Planning, Licensing, Taxi Appeals, Housing, ASBOs, ASBIs, Closure Orders, s222, Injunctions, Judicial Review Proceedings, Contract, Negligence, Personal Injury, Crime, Regulatory Crime, Benefit Fraud, Planning Enforcement, Trading Standards Prosecutions, Health Safety, Family, Care Proceedings.
