Who/What is Employment Law Services Ltd.?

• Employment Law Services Limited is a legal publishing company which has been operating since 2000.  We publish various electronic guides to employment law, organise employment law seminars and write/distribute employment law bulletins on behalf of solicitors' firms to help them generate work and attract new clients. 

• They are probably the most efficient single marketing tool currently available.  Your name appears regularly in front of your existing and potential clients.  They associate you with current HR knowledge and practical solutions to their workplace problems. 

• By sending regular employment law updates, you raise your firm's profile,encourage prospective clients to view your firm as a valuable source of information andtrigger a reaction with clients who have particular problems they read about within the bulletins.
  
  
• Traditionally firms have used paper newsletters.  These are generally regarded as poor producers of revenue.  The print process means they are always out of date.  They are often thrown away by secretaries and, even if they make it to your client's desk, will often be skimmed or binned.  By contrast, Email bulletins reach the intended recipient directly and will hopefully be filed away and used as a first point of reference when they encounter employment law problems.  Unlike paper bulletins, they can be searched easily and have relevant information located swiftly.

Why should we use you?

• Producing accurate, timely and informative bulletins is onerous and often takes a day or more of billable time.  Using us to write and distribute the bulletins saves substantial fee-earner time.  We also help you avoid additional use of secretarial resources by maintaining the distribution list and handling all subscription and unsubscription requests.

• We are professional, knowledgeable, and experienced in the writing and distribution of Email employment law bulletins.

What is in the updates?

• The updates contain news on recent and impending developments in employment law. 

• Each bulletin is headed with the name of your firm (and, if you wish, your logo).  They contain clear contact details and any promotional or advertising material you wish to include, including links to your website.  The 'from' line in the Email will be the name of your firm (or any name you choose) and all replies will be forwarded to your firm.

How often do they come out?

• You can choose from either quarterly (4 times a year) or 'monthly' (10 times a year, usually with a single issue covering July/August and December/January).

How do people sign up?

• We provide a sign-up page which you can link to from your website.

• The sign-up page can be programmed to request any demographic data you want, for example the size or location of the firm, or any areas they would like you to contact them about.  This information can be provided to you on request.

Won't our competitors send out the same bulletins?

• We take steps to avoid this.  The main step is that we will only produce bulletins for one firm within a five-mile radius of any city.  Please click 'Exclusivity' above for further details.

What about the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 ?

• We take the anti-spam Regulations very seriously.  We operate double opt-in lists, so that subscribers are sent an Email to confirm their subscription - ensuring nobody is added without their consent.  All of the bulletins we distribute have an 'unsubscribe' option at the bottom of the bulletin.

Can we customise your bulletins, or send out our own materials?

• Yes - you can make any changes you want to the regular monthly or quarterly bulletins.  Some firms advertise their seminar programmes, others like to announce cases they have been involved with.  You can also send out additional bulletins (where you write the text yourself), although we reserve the right to make a small charge for this.
