Capsticks is pleased to announce that it has secured four Lots on a £72 million contract on the LBLA Legal Services Framework, including its reappointment to Lot two: Full Range of Legal Services and three new Lot appointments: Regeneration, Housing Management and Property and Planning.

Capsticks will provide legal advisory services and support some of the largest communities across London and the South-East. The appointment starts in 2026 and runs for four years.

LBLA was established in 2009 as a successful collaborative partnership of local authority legal teams, at the forefront of innovative procurement practice and efficiency strategy, delivering a demonstrable best value service to clients and residents.

The London Borough of Haringey is the procuring contracting authority and is supported by legal consultancy Kennedy Cater, which manages the LBLA.

Kennedy Cater commented:
It is important for us to see the expertise and support those that have made it onto the framework. We continue to grow and thrive with firms by our side that have a vision to deliver quality legal solutions, drive value and efficiency, and remain innovative, flexible and focused.

Lucy Woods, Partner, said:
We have worked with the LBLA for 16 years and look forward to building on that relationship with the appointment of three new Lots. This significant achievement not only aligns with the values we share with our clients but also showcases the firm’s continued growth and success in the Local Government sector.

Rachael Heenan, Senior Partner, added:
To be the firm of choice for organisations who work to make a difference is at the heart of Capsticks. In recent years, we have increased focus on growing our Local Government client base through appointments to key legal services frameworks in the sector. With this achievement, we are now represented on the majority of local authority frameworks.

Capsticks aims to be the firm of choice for organisations who work to make a difference. Our purpose is to be the legal advisers that clients want by their side, providing innovative and practical solutions tailored to our sectors’ unique challenges. Our lawyers work together as one team with the same values: putting people first, doing the right thing and always forward thinking.
