Summary

Equality and justice in public life are the backbone of a functioning democracy. The Public Sector in Malta refers to all government organisations and their employees, which are distinct from the private sector which encompasses various private companies, NGOs and their employees. Thus, the role of our Public Sector team is to provide the specialist knowledge and skills of our professionals in the legal field to support under-represented groups and services and provide important expertise in the functioning of government.

In addition to the civil code and the constitution, Malta has been rapidly transposing EU directives in housing law, employment and industrial relations, financial services and taxation, consumer protection, equal opportunities and discrimination and is a member of the European Convention of Human Rights. As such, the onus on Maltese Authorities to provide these services requires a presence within public sector as a means of checks and balances.

My wife and I have an association with Chetcuti Cauchi since 2009.

Jean-Philippe was a key advisor to me on the general European and in particular Maltese related tax, legal, accounting and secretarial aspects of a rather complex corporate group structure. We were operating in an extremely dynamic situation, and I was most grateful for his patience and understanding when we had to scrap the last idea and start all over again. He is highly professional, responsive and is excellent at finding practical solutions to difficult situations, whatever the time of day or night. He also has an excellent relationship with his team, and the service provided by his firm is intelligent, joined up and seamless. He is good humoured and imminently likeable and I look forward to working with him again in the future.
