Watson Farley & Williams LLP has recently attracted numerous new instructions, particularly in the healthcare and transport sectors, and impresses with comprehensive procurement and antitrust expertise as well as PPP knowledge. On both the contracting authorities and bidder side, the team regularly acts in award and negotiation proceedings for public transport expansion, the digitalisation of the health system and for various energy and broadband projects. Practice head Felix Siebler not only advises on the implementation of procurement proceedings, but also on the structuring of internal procurement systems. With the arrival of counsel Norbert Schleper (previously at Waldeck Rechtsanwälte PartmbB) in July 2022, the team gained a contract law expert.
