Requests for Legal Advice

Because of the need to ensure that all our instructions are approved by the University, and in order to retain legal privilege, the solicitors in the Legal Services Office can only be instructed by authorised University personnel.

Therefore, if you require advice from the solicitors in the Legal Services Office you should first discuss with your Dean of College, College Manager or Head of Service who will then contact us to confirm the instructions. In relation to employment matters, these must be raised first with the Personnel team who will then instruct Legal Services if necessary.
