How our 24/7 legal support can help you

A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR, FSB

WHEN you’re working for yourself, staying on top of paperwork and legal compliance is a must.

280,000 legal documents and DIY templates were downloaded from the Federation of Small Businesses’ on-demand legal library in 2020, according to FSB’s Annual Report, helping thousands of business owners to save time.

Through changing regulations and restrictions in 2020, FSB’s 24/7 legal advice line gave peace of mind to 147,000 callers on everything from furlough agreements and employment law to Covid-19 risk assessments and data protection.

Whether it’s a quick question or more complex scenario, FSB’s legal support works around you, with the option to book calls from a specialist at a convenient time to you. FSB members also have added protection for less with legal expenses insurance designed just for small businesses, backed by expert guidance and online support - all at no extra cost.

FSB Legal Hub is home to more than 1,200 downloadable and customisable documents, guides, templates and more.

All the documents are written by FSB’s legal team from Markel Law and checked regularly throughout the year, so they’re always up to date.

It’s one of the many ways FSB is supporting small business owners to spend less time on paperwork and more time doing what you love.
