3 Welcome to Lawclub! You ve joined an exclusive scheme for colleagues and their families which gives you access to a legal professional by telephone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year in addition to insurance against your legal costs if: 1. You have an injury and want to seek compensation. 2. You have an employment problem and want to take action against your employer or someone wants to take action against you. As a Lawclub member you also have access to discounted conveyancing, matrimonial and will services, exclusively available to Lawclub colleagues. Lawclub is a confidential legal service. Lawclub is provided by Keeble Hawson Solicitors in conjunction with Abbey Legal Protection. Asda will not be told of any discussions or claims without your permission. If you want to speak to someone in Asda about the scheme or how it works you can talk to your People Service Manager / People Manager. By the way... Any time we say you in this booklet, we mean you, your spouse or partner who normally live with you and any children (under 21) and parents who live with you as well. Lawclub is a benefit for your whole family. How much does it cost? Membership is free until 31st December 2010, or for the first 6 pay periods of your employment. From 31st December 2010 membership will be just 10p per week (the same price as 2000), which will be deducted direct from your salary. If you no longer wish to be a member of Lawclub after 31st December 2010, please contact your People Service Manager / People Manager. How can I use Lawclub? It s easy. On the front cover of this booklet is your membership card containing all the contact numbers, which you can pop out and keep in your purse or wallet. Simply ring the number on your membership card, also listed below, for the service you want and quote your Wal-Mart number (there s a space on the back of your card to write your Wal-Mart ID number so that you can have it with you all the time). You can call Lawclub general advice Legal Helpline 24 hours a day, 365 days a year making it convenient for you to call whenever you need advice. The specialist Employment and Personal Injury Lines operate Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.00pm. Lawclub Employment, Matrimonial, Wills & House Conveyancing Line: Lawclub Personal Injury Line: Lawclub Legal Helpline: Lawclub is your scheme. It s independent and entirely confidential. 3

4 What do I get as a member of Lawclub? Legal advice - 24 hours a day 365 days a year When you phone the Lawclub Legal Helpline you will be put through to a fully qualified solicitor or barrister who will give you and your family advice on any legal matter, from advice on hire-purchase agreements to family law. There is no limit to the number of calls you can make, or the length of each call. Employment advice and insurance against your legal costs You and your family also have access to a specialist employment legal team. They will; Advise you on your and your employer s rights, giving your immediate support to help you resolve problems or concerns about your job. If they feel you have a strong case against your employer, they will send you a claim form with a view to helping you take your employer to an employment tribunal. Pay the cost of running your case provided that it continues to have a reasonable prospect of success. If you are facing disciplinary action or redundancy, if you have been dismissed, discriminated against, bullied, unfairly treated at work or named as a respondent in an employment tribunal or are concerned about any aspect of your job you should call the Lawclub employment line for confidential advice IMPORTANT: If you have an existing employment problem, that arose before you became a member of Lawclub you will not be eligible for employment insurance for that problem, but you can still get advice from Lawclub s employment experts. Personal Injury Compensation Recovery Service The term personal injury covers a broad spectrum of injuries and accidents, for example, injuries sustained in a road traffic accident, an accident at work, slipping or tripping in a public place, product liability injuries etc. If you, or a member of your family, have suffered a personal injury that wasn't your fault, you could be entitled to make a compensation claim. The Lawclub s specialist personal injury team can advise on your rights and can act on your behalf, taking legal action against the other party, provided that you have a strong enough case. Lawclub will make sure that you have no legal costs, whether you win or lose your case, by agreeing with the legal professional that represents you that they will not be paid if you lose. Because the Law is different in England and Wales from that in Scotland, the insurance arrangements are also different. In England and Wales if your case is thought to be strong enough, as well as entering a no win, no fee agreement, you will also have to enter into an additional insurance agreement, but Lawclub has arranged it so that you will not have to pay any legal or insurance costs to conduct a case in this way. You will always receive your compensation in full without any deductions. If you or a member of your family have suffered an injury before you joined the Lawclub your case may still be considered. You should phone the Lawclub Personal Injury Line for advice. IMPORTANT: Lawclub does not cover cases where your injury is due to medical negligence, if it concerns stress related problems, accidents or illnesses abroad unless you were travelling as part of a package holiday, and if your case is part of an action taken with other people (unless it is relating to members of your family and friends eg a car accident involving more than one person). 4

5 Extra benefits 1. Matrimonial Service - Due to the nature of matrimonial cases, very often colleagues prefer to deal with a solicitor face-to-face. The Lawclub have a nationwide list of specialist matrimonial solicitors offering a free first interview and a set discounted fee to all Lawclub members. 2. Wills - For all wills, probate and estate administration matters, Lawclub offers a free first interview, advice in plain English, and discounted rates. Straight forward single wills start at 80 + VAT. More complicated wills can be negotiated with a discount of 20% on our standard rate. * Rates apply to England and Wales.
