Harper Macleod Boosts Client Services With the Launch of Employee Benefits Package

Harper Macleod LLP, one of Scotlands leading commercial law firms, is adding to its range of client services with the launch of its Employee Benefits Package, employee plus.

Aimed at the firms key employer clients, the package offers employees and their partners a wide range of benefits at privileged fee rates, ranging from residential conveyancing services to pensions advice, financial planning and family and matrimonial advice.  A dedicated central phone line and email address will provide employees with a convenient resource for all enquiries.

Harper Macleod is unaware of any other law firm in Scotland that offers a value added employee benefits package to employees of key clients.

Professor Crerar, Managing Partner, said; "Some of our clients have been keen for the firm to align its brand with their own and provide general private client services to their employees and Partners.  Arising from this demand, we have decided to extend this service to the larger employer clients of the firm and so far, the response from our clients has been very encouraging.  Services are provided not only by our central belt operations, but also for the Highlands from our Inverness office.  employee plus is a further example of the innovative, solution-driven way in which Harper Macleod delivers services to its clients and it is no surprise that we are once again paving new ground ahead of the competition."

Leading Scottish construction firm Tulloch and Royal Bank of Scotland insurance are two of the first of Harper Macleods large employer clients to sign up to employee plus.  Tulloch Executive Chairman David Sutherland commented; "We have worked with Harper Macleod for a long time and the firms innovative approach to our business has proved invaluable during our growth. Were delighted that our employees are now able to benefit from a value added scheme such as employee plus, which were sure will be delivered with the exceptional levels of service which we have come to associate with the Harper Macleod team."

Julie Mullen, Team Leader, Direct Line Insurance commented; "It is clear that employee plus offers a range of benefits to our employees and were delighted to be aligning our brand with an innovative name such as Harper Macleod.  The dedicated fee rates and easy access phone line are a great resource and will hopefully encourage more staff to seek expert legal advice on important issues."
