Asking for help isn’t always easy and being able to choose how you get support can make that first step a little easier. Some people prefer to pick up the phone and talk. Others find it easier to type or want time to put their thoughts into an email.
That’s why LawCare offers live online chat alongside our helpline and email support. Whichever way you contact us, you’ll be talking to someone with first-hand experience of working in the legal sector.
And you don’t need to wait until things reach crisis point. If something is worrying you, work is getting on top of you or you’re simply having a difficult time, you can get in touch. Sometimes talking things through before they build up can help.
Our helpline, live online chat and email support are available Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
We're here to listen… without judgement
