The Co-operative Legal Services (CLS) has appointed Fishburn Hedges to raise awareness of its services amongst customers.

The agency will bring to consumers' attention services such as will writing, probate, personal injury and conveyancing, as well as its imminent move into family legal services.

Russ Brady, head of group public relations at The Co-operative Group, said: ”We’re looking to completely change the way UK consumers can access the law and we want to ensure that our compelling message is heard loud and clear. The Co-operative’s core values of trust, openness and honesty means that we are ideally placed to help consumers at what are often the most challenging times of their lives.”
