Age Concern Leicester Shire & Rutland has unveiled an exclusive agreement with Harvey Ingram, after appointing the award-winning law firm as preferred provider for key legal services to the charity's volunteers, staff and customers.

Under the agreement, Harvey Ingram will make a donation to Age Concern Leicester Shire & Rutland for every matter it handles on behalf of its staff and supporters.

Age Concern Leicester Shire & Rutland executive director Tony Donovan says: "We are delighted to unveil this agreement. Harvey Ingram staff are nationally-acknowledged legal experts in a vast range of areas and we are very confident the new agreement will be of enormous benefit to all.

"The firm has been a long-term Age Concern supporter and adviser. It already provides a first class service to elderly clients throughout the region and was an obvious choice to partner with in providing an expanded range of legal services."

Harvey Ingram will provide direct advice on everything from wills, personal injury, family law, consumer rights, to planning and property matters, via a dedicated telephone hotline, e-mail and website.

Managing partner Simon Astill says: "We are delighted to be supporting Age Concern.
