Access Legal from Shoosmiths, has teamed up with MAG to provide a dedicated legal helpline for MAG members, their friends and family. You have 24/7 access to great legal advice on any legal matter – and all for the cost of a telephone call with no legal bills to worry about.
The number one motorbike blog for the south coast We’re bikers who happen to be lawyers.
In February 2010, Shoosmiths – the national law firm we work for – created Access Legal, which provides legal advice and services just for consumers.
Then, just over a year ago, someone suggested we set up a blog about motorcycles. Why? Well, there are a few of us here who are bike mad and have been for years. We’re passionate about bikes and are lucky enough to act for bikers who need lawyers.
We didn’t want to use social media as a sales pitch, but to share our love of bikes and a bit about what we do. We’ve a team at Access Legal that specialises in bikers’ legal needs and which is only too keen to help when you need us – which means we can indulge our passion for bikes during work hours!
services for bikers need when it goes to bike events? Of course; an Access Legal-branded 1999 GSXR600 SRAD track bike (my request for an RSV4 APRC was declined, sadly!).
It’s already been with us to events across the south, including at our favourite biker café Loomies, and we ran a competition to see who reacted quickest to brake lights flashing in front of the Gixxer, with winners taking home a pair of Alpinestars race gloves. We had lots of fun doing it and posted the results on the blog for people to see, track their place in the standings, and share photographs of the events we attended.
As if that wasn’t enough, we decided to go racing. Well, not literally. We knew a young rider through some contacts, and decided to sponsor Superstock racer Leon Hunt. We’ve followed his progress on the blog during his 2011 season with AP Kawasaki, and he’s provided us with numerous post race reports.
We’re also lucky to have regular updates from Paddy Tyson, campaigns coordinator at the Motorcycle Action Group, which has proved popular.
We had SERV emergency bikers as our charity of the year and raised more than £7,000 to help SERV buy a new bike for transporting blood around Hampshire’s hospitals – there are photographs on the blog.
Despite all that, though, we want more on the blog. There’s a big biker community out there, and we’d like you to be a part of what we’re doing.
So if you’ve any articles or stories you think others would be interested in, why not let us know about them? If your story receives more than 150 separate views in a day you’ll be sent a pair of Alpinestars SP8 gloves. Go on, give it a go!
