Jennifer Turner

Principal Associate

What can I do for you

Jennifer deals with a broad range of corporate and commercial matters for education, charity and other public sector based clients.  She has particular expertise around academic collaborations and international education ventures, apprenticeship contracts, charity fundraising, grants and donations, and general commercial contracts.

Supporting your ambitions

One of Jennifer's highlights has been assisting clients with interpreting and implementing changes in the apprenticeships system.  She has helped a number of clients to develop suites of template contracts and to navigate some challenging legal and regulatory issues.  This has enabled clients to launch new apprenticeship programmes and to maximise the opportunities available.  Jennifer has also advised on a variety of academic collaborations including validation, joint/dual, flying faculty and agency agreements, helping clients to achieve their ambitions and reduce their risk.  These have included complex and bespoke international arrangements in jurisdictions such as India, China and Malta. 

What do others say

Jennifer has recently helped a University client to negotiate a number of apprenticeship contracts and to develop a suite of templates.  They said: "Jennifer Turner has been so helpful to us in her work on apprenticeship contracts...I have been impressed with her approach and standards of client care".

What else should you know

Jennifer undertook a nine month secondment at a University client.  She advised on a wide range of general commercial contracts and issues as well as academic collaborations.  This was invaluable experience in understanding how institutions operate 'on the ground' and the commercial issues they face.

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.
