Transport for London and wealth management group Lombard International have elected to extend their current legal panel arrangements. TfL, the government body responsible for most of the transport network in London, has confirmed that it has exercised an option to extend its panel for two years, according to a person with knowledge of the panel. The panel, which underwent its last review in 2019, was due to be renewed this May.

In 2019, the transport group chose to trim its panel of 15 firms to 11, with firms such as Simmons & Simmons and Lewis Silkin missing out.
