North West law firm launches NHS freephone line for legal enquiries

Leading law firm, Primas, has launched a free phone line for NHS employees who may be looking for legal advice

Commercial law firm, Primas, has launched a new freephone number to provide free legal advice to NHS employees.

Primas hopes to be able to alleviate some additional stresses on NHS staff by providing them with free advice on legal issues, such as finance and statutory rights, to thank healthcare professionals for their selfless work during the COVID19 pandemic.

The number will work on one central line and be operational for a full twelve months.

Managing Partner, Adam Kerr, said of the venture: “At Primas, we always plan different fundraising activities throughout the year, but are limited as to what we can do at the moment for obvious reasons.

“After speaking to a couple of my friends, who are working on the frontline in the NHS, and running the idea of free legal advice by them, they assured me people would be hugely grateful for the offer.

“Even if we, at Primas, can’t help with a specific request, we can certainly point people in the direction of somebody who can.

“It just feels like the UK should all be doing all we can at the moment to thank the NHS for their service and commitment. If Primas can use the skills and our expertise of our team to help in any way, we are more than happy to do so.”

The freephone number is 0333 242 2622 and can be used by NHS staff in need of legal advice for the next twelve months.

Primas has offices in Cheshire, Manchester and London and offers a wide range of services including corporate and commercial, employment, real estate, insolvency and litigation.
