Transport for London (TfL) has confirmed its legal panel, with Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer among a trio of firms no longer on the roster.

Work covered by the panel includes: employment and industrial relations, major commercial, rail, routine commercial and real estate, housing, property and commercial development, highways and major consents, and planning.
Addleshaw Goddard, DLA Piper and Stephenson Harwood are among the new firms to have won places on the line-up, along with Pinsent Masons, Womble Bond Dickinson and BDB Pitmans.
Ashurst, Eversheds Sutherland, Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner, Dentons, Herbert Smith Freehills, K&L Gates, Trowers & Hamlins and Gowling WLG all sat on the panel previously and have been reappointed.
