Public Law

Practice area
We advise public authorities and companies on all public law matters. Our Public Law team specialises in dealing with complex public law issues, and our approach is based on in-depth knowledge, practical experience, and a strong emphasis on client needs.

Public law rules and principles form the framework for how public authorities make decisions and interact with citizens and businesses. It is essential to maintain public trust in institutions and ensure fair treatment for all parties. In recent years, public authorities have faced increased scrutiny in managing a growing number of cases in an ever more complex world. Our advice helps them achieve their goals with confidence.

For private companies operating in regulated markets and activities, a thorough understanding of public law rules is equally critical. We always consider the client's business and use that as a foundation to help companies navigate the legislative landscape, providing deep insights into regulatory authorities' actions and response options. This can be the difference between success and failure for a project, where non-compliance with public law requirements can lead to sanctions, delays, and financial losses.

Plesner's Public Law team handles all cases involving general administrative law issues, municipal legal matters, public employees and duties, access to public records, as well as legal issues related to utilities and social care facilities. We regularly assist clients in cases of expropriation and public authority liability. 

We particularly stand out among other law firms due to our extensive experience in advising and assisting in disputes over project engineering and construction laws, constitutional and EU matters, international law matters, concession agreements, public licenses, and other public contracts.
