Our free monthly legal surgery for members of the Society of Practicing Veterinary Surgeons (SPVS)

Our monthly legal surgery is an exclusive service we provide to SPVS members where they can speak to one of our specialist veterinary legal team about any legal issue*.

The legal surgery provides a point of contact to signpost members to a solicitor for an initial conversation about how to proceed with their legal matter, to understand next steps for moving forward, including an initial estimate of fees and, where relevant, other options.

Our free legal surgeries take place virtually between 13:00 - 14:00 on the third Thursday of every month and are open to all SPVS members.

Sessions are taking place on:

  • Thursday 18 April 13:00 - 14:00
  • Thursday 16 May 13:00 - 14:00
  • Thursday 20 June 13:00 - 14:00
  • Thursday 18 July 13:00 - 14:00
  • Thursday 15 August 13:00 - 14:00

  • Thursday 21 November 13:00 - 14:00
  • Thursday 19 December 13:00 - 14:00
