Lasa and the Legal Action Group announce new strategic partnership
We’re excited to announce that Lasa and the Legal Action Group (LAG) have formed a new strategic partnership for the benefit of the legal & advice sector ...
The new partnership will build on the work of both organisations. LAG’s strength in legal publishing and Lasa’s in technical innovation for advice support will enable us to share experience and learning, enhancing the positive impact of our work on the legal and advice sector.
The partnership will also provide a platform for us to increase our efficiency and effectiveness by improving back office support and by exploring new technological solutions in our common interest
Our CEO Terry Stokes said today:
“These are very challenging times for the organisations providing legal and social welfare advice. The changes to Legal Aid, Welfare Reform and reductions in funding place considerable pressure on front line advice providers. We believe that by working together Lasa and LAG can continue to be best placed to support advisers in the vital work they do.”
