The Legal Services Department is responsible for the delivery of all legal services to the Welsh Government, including advice on complex matters of public law, the handling of high profile litigation and the preparation of all Welsh Government subordinate legislation.
Welsh Government Lawyers work to a Senior Government Lawyer who is a Team Leader within a specified portfolio.

The Legal Services Department is responsible for the delivery of all legal services to the Welsh Ministers. It is an exciting time to be at the heart of the Welsh Government as it takes forward the new devolution settlement, with new and enhanced powers alongside undertaking critical work on EU Withdrawal.
The appointment of additional public lawyers will further strengthen the ability of the Legal Services Department to support the Welsh Government at this critical time.
