Hodge Jones & Allen has set up a free personal injury legal advice service with Nottingham Law School's on-campus teaching law firm, NLS Legal

Law students will receive training to work alongside qualified lawyers, offering an initial personal injury advice service to people in Nottinghamshire. The pro bono initiative will raise awareness of people’s rights in personal injury cases as well as give real-world experience and training to students.

The advice will mainly be offered remotely. Daniel Denton, Hodge Jones & Allen partner, who will lead the initiative, said: ‘It is important to me that everyone has an accessible route to understanding their rights and to be able to gain justice.’
