Mills & Reeve. Achieve more. Together.

Rona McPherson

Principal Associate

What can I do for you

As a commercial lawyer, Rona can assist with all aspects of commercial contracts, public procurement and subsidy control.  Her clients come from public (including health), private and third sectors.   Rona can assist whether you need a suite of documents for a procurement exercise or just want a review of documents you’ve already drafted, require a new services contract or are wondering if your supplier is complying with the terms of your agreement, or if you need to know whether the award or receipt of a grant is in line with subsidy control legislation.

Supporting your ambitions

Rona can help you navigate the new Procurement Act 2023 and advise on the application of the recently introduced Provider Selection Regime for healthcare services.

Rona has been on several secondments to government departments meaning she has good insight into her client’s day to day contractual and procurement issues and enjoys advising on how these can be resolved.  While it’s great to work on a procurement from start to finish, Rona and her colleagues understand you might want a different approach.  We’re happy to support on an “as and when needed basis” at any stage of a competitive process.

What do others say

After Rona’s involvement in a particularly complex contract modification taking some months to navigate, one client noted “it’s been a pleasure and couldn’t have done it without you”.

What our clients say about us

  • I think Mills & Reeve are a wonderful firm. The support they have provided to us in a really difficult area has been brilliant, collaborative and commercially minded. The team were absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with. Amazing advice and support and a real collaborative effort with us. I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.
  • They are friendly, fast, always available and always on top of the game. I tend to judge my legal team against the other side's legal team and never doubt Mills & Reeve is the better of the two.
  • All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.
  • I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.

As many clients will testify, too many lawyers deliver the required legal expertise but fail to deliver an outstanding client experience. Which is why we always listen to our clients and constantly ask ourselves what we can do to deliver the results you expect.

You expect a close and attentive working relationship, with a lawyer that is responsive and available when you need them. You also want clear, pragmatic and commercial advice tailored to your needs, and transparency and certainty on costs. We completely agree. That’s why every day, through our culture and approach we are committed to delivering the exceptional results and service our clients expect of us.
