Governmental Legal Support

In today’s economy, public sector firms and players face unique obstacles—obstacles that require expert legal counsel who understands the complexities of governmental legal issues.

When government is involved, there is no margin for error. From policy execution to pensions, governmental legal operations can have an incalculable impact. Freeman Law assists government bodies, organizations, and agencies with a wide variety of issues.

Freeman Law can provide legal support to governmental agencies in:

  • Construction
  • Dispute resolution
  • Litigation
  • Taxation compliance
  • School districts
  • Education
  • Energy operations
  • Governmental contracts
  • Healthcare
  • Land use
  • Public policy
  • Real estate acquisition & develop

The efficacy and success of agencies, organizations, and offices in each of these public sectors depend on competent legal counsel and, at times, vigorous representation in litigation.

Freeman Law provides counsel in these legal areas, assisting governmental bodies with their legal needs.


Funding Shortages

The state of the economy means that governmental bodies at all levels face significant budget challenges. Increased scale, lower revenue, and reductions in federal support programs all combine to leave agency officials with unprecedented challenges.

 

In many cases, an agency’s fundamental mission is dependent upon meeting challenges in budgeting, staffing, and other fiscal concerns. Agencies often lack the necessary resources to execute their objectives.

Effective legal counsel can aid with short- and long-term planning, budgeting, and identifying and pursuing additional funding opportunities. When legal professionals take on and help in resolving an agency’s economic load, the primary focus can be properly restored to defining and undertaking key agency objectives.


Global Economy

Global economic conditions continue to have a significant impact on state and local affairs. Globalization has opened the door for domestic companies to relocate to other geographic areas. This, in turn, has often placed pressure on local economies.

 

When jobs are lost, a growing number of workers are forced out of employer-sponsored retirement plans, thereby adding strain to already overburdened government programs for healthcare, transportation, and other services.

In the face of globalization developments, experienced legal counsel can assist with strategy and negotiation as state and local government seek to retain current industries and attract new ones.

In turbulent times, it is essential to have legal counsel who can advise on a big-picture strategy for planning long-term economic success and growth.
