About us

Here at KCC Legal Services, we take a different approach. While we deal with complex legal issues every day, we never lose sight of the lives and aspirations of the people who really matter - our clients. We know that you need a real person, a friendly guide, to lead you through the legal maze and get you the results you need. That highly qualified member of KCC Legal Services’ team will stay with you, from your first conversation with us, to your last.

We know that personal service counts for a lot in a modern world which is too often faceless and bureaucratic. We have over 30 years of experience and take great pride in our reputation for doing things quickly and efficiently.

We know what a crucial difference the small things can make to our clients, and our attention to detail is second to none. We spot potential problems before they become real ones.

The KCC Legal Services difference is:

Professionalism combined with personal service

KCC Legal Services provides high quality, affordable legal advice to local authorities and other public bodies across the UK.

Over recent years we have established ourselves as a leader in the field for quality and cost-effectiveness. We now operate as an in-house private practice, combining the efficiency and dynamism of the private sector with the service ethos of the public sector, focusing on delivering results that benefit the communities we serve.

Increasingly, our role is not just to give advice but to help shape and deliver some of the most radical and visionary projects in the history of Kent County Council. A combination of innovation, determination and a willingness to work in partnership has allowed us to deliver real and lasting benefits to the communities we serve.

What makes us different?

  • We are changing the way public sector lawyers think and work
  • Technical expertise is given
  • The way we deliver advice to our clients sets us apart
  • Our business is client-driven and our success is measured by  their success
  • It's by forging true partnerships with clients, keeping an open mind and looking for creative solutions that we add value to our relationships and build our success
  • Our lawyers are business advisers, not just legal experts
  • We have a reputation for being 'unstuffy', down-to-earth, accessible people whose primary motivation is delivering great advice to clients: not just answering or clarifying points of law, but getting 'stuck in' and identifying with our clients' business
  • Our diverse and internationally qualified team of lawyers are proficient in over 18 different languages
