Getting support for your Legal products is easy.

As you will be aware, we launched the Access Digital Assistant in February 2026. This is the quickest and easiest way to get help.

Our teams are also available between 08:00 and 18:00, Monday to Friday, should you need additional assistance.

We kindly ask that you try this channel first wherever possible, as we are continually enhancing and expanding the support content available to you. Your use of these tools supports our ongoing commitment to improving the customer experience.

All software users can also access the dedicated Help Centre for Legal Compliance.

Should you need to contact us by phone, there is a single dedicated telephone number: 01206 696430

If you have any old support numbers saved, please disregard them and ensure you use the number above going forward.
