We are proud to have been on the National Farmers Union (NFU) Legal Panel for the North East of England since it was established in 1999 and have been providing legal advice to NFU members for over 30 years. All members receive an initial free consultation and a 12.5% discount on all fees incurred on matters relating to the farming business.
As one of only two Legal Panel firms for the North East, we are offering a free initial ‘Health Check’
initiative to members (to demonstrate our commitment to the NFU and its members).
Simply complete a Legal Health Check Questionnaire and return it to us.
