Sharpe Pritchard LLP

Sharpe Pritchard LLP advises across the lifecycle of complex public infrastructure schemes, with particular strength in PPP and PFI. The team has played a key role in new-build RAB-based infrastructure models and regularly advises on major government-backed projects involving the energy transition, renewables, hydrogen, transport and district heating. Helming the group is the highly experienced Nicola Sumner, who is widely recognised as a market-leading adviser on public sector procurement matters. Fellow practice co-heads Roseanne Serrelli and Steve Gummer bring further PPP and infrastructure expertise and are active on a wide array of projects, from utilities and power to digital infrastructure and transport ventures. Allan Owen is valued by clients for his ability to handle both construction and project finance instructions. Juli Lau is instructed by utilities and public authorities on project development and commercial matters. Ellen Painter also comes recommended.
