Our higher education lawyers understand the landscape in which higher education institutions (HEIs) operate and our legal advice will help you find practical and innovative legal solutions to the challenges and opportunities that you face.
The higher education sector in England and Wales includes some of the world's leading education institutions. HEIs make a major contribution to the economy and to the regions in which they are based.
