Sharpe Pritchard launches innovative online local government law platform

Sharpe Pritchard, the firm of public law specialists, has launched an innovative local government law platform on the Local Government Lawyer website as a portal for the latest legal updates relating to local government.

The SharpeEdge platform will be fronted by Sharpe Pritchard’s recently appointed Head of Local Government, Rob Hann and will be a repository of local government legal knowledge, news and insights from the firm’s team of specialist lawyers.

As well as showcasing all the latest news and views, Sharpe Edge gives people working in local government the opportunity to ask any questions they have about local government law.

Rob Hann said: “Sharpe Edge is an exciting development for local government legal teams and we hope they will find it a valuable resource. “I am looking forward to reaching local authorities up and down the country through Sharpe Edge.”
