Phoenix Legal Services is featured on Business Live and in Western Mail Business Wales today as we celebrate our success in winning a place on the Crown Commercial Services panel for legal costs services. Here is what Business Live had to say about us:

‘A Cardiff law firm is expected to double in size after securing panel status with Crown Commercial Service.

Phoenix Legal Services believes the contract has a potential value of up to £4m and increase the staffing levels to 34 in the next two years.

Phoenix was created in 2003 by Stephen Averill and is the only Welsh company to win a place on this national framework, achieving panel status following a tendering process. The firm offers costs management and recovery.

CCS is the largest public procurement organisation in the UK, playing a role in helping the UK public and third sectors save money when buying common goods and services – everything from locum doctors and laptops to police cars and electricity.

CCS is free to use for public and third sector organisations, and in 2017/18 CCS helped 17,000 buyers save £601m of public money using CCS commercial agreements.
Mr Averill said: “When I set up Phoenix I wanted to stand out from the competition, with an ethos of nurturing and supporting the individuals in my team and making them feel valued.

“It’s testament to their skills and commitment that we have achieved this prestigious panel status, a game changer for us, and we can now all look forward to significant future expansion with real confidence.”’
