In response to feedback from academies and schools, we have developed a cost effective legal advice and support service which covers every area of law a school or academy could ever need. This is a national scheme designed to give you confidence to take legal advice as and when you need it, 24/7.
This is the VWV HR & Legal Services Retainer, the equivalent of a virtual in-house legal team.
Our comprehensive service enables us to become your virtual in-house legal team. It is important to us that you see us as your trusted legal advisers, so that we are able to guide you through your immediate and long term decisions. For this reason we take time to get to know you and understand your priorities.
By providing practical and timely legal advice, our lawyers ensure that you are in the driving seat, not 'sitting on the fence' unsure of your strategic options.
We are the largest team of specialist education lawyers in the country which enables us to offer a comprehensive range of legal services including HR & employment, governor services, pupil welfare & compliance, estate management, capital projects, commercial contracts, ICT, procurement and trading.
