Available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, Law-Call provides ÍõÖÐÍõ¿ª½±½á¹û early years settings, childminders and baby and toddler group members with telephone access to free specialist legal advice.

The service is provided in a confidential, sympathetic and jargon-free manner, on areas of law associated with the successful running of your childcare service such as:

• Employment and HR issues, including guidance on how to handle disciplinary matters, termination of an employee’s contract, sickness absence within the workplace, statutory rights and employers obligations
• Health and safety matters
• Property related advice on licences or lease agreements
• Contractual disputes with suppliers
• Debts and debt recovery
• Tax and VAT issues relating to the setting
• Data protection
• Charity law.

Legal issues are often resolved immediately following telephone advice from the Law-Call service. If this is not possible due to the nature or complexity of the case, the lawyer speaking with you can advise on the best way forward.
