About

South Lanarkshire Council awarded a contract to Ledingham Chalmers LLP for the provision of outsourced legal services under a framework agreement.

The framework, established for an initial 3-year term with a possible 24-month extension, is divided into three lots: Lot 1 and Lot 2 each awarded to a single bidder, and Lot 3 awarded to a maximum of four bidders.

The services cover commercial, litigation, financial guardianship and interveners, Edinburgh agent work, and complex or high-value litigation.

The Council's in-house legal team will handle the majority of legal services, with outsourcing required for matters where the Council is legally unable to act (e.g., financial guardians), work requiring specialised experience, or when in-house capacity is insufficient.
