These Terms of Service (“Terms and Conditions,” “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Legal Connect UK (“Legal Connect,” “we,” “our,” “us”) website and the services provided therein. By accessing or using our platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms, which constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Legal Connect UK. It is your responsibility to read and understand these Terms thoroughly. If you do not agree to any part of these Terms, you must cease using our services immediately. Your continued use of the website signifies your acceptance of these Terms and your commitment to adhere to them
- SERVICES TERM
Legal Connect UK offers candidates a comprehensive range of support services designed to ease their relocation process and meet various legal requirements. These services include assistance with immigration, obtaining necessary documentation, securing housing, and navigating the complexities of moving to a new country. Additionally, we provide job placement support, helping candidates find employment opportunities that match their skills and experience.
Our job placement support includes access to job listings that are curated from third-party sources. While we provide these listings as a resource, it’s important to note that Legal Connect UK does not create, endorse, or verify the content of these job listings. We also have no control over the conditions or terms that third-party employers may impose once you leave our website. If you choose to apply for a job or follow a link to an external website, you do so at your own risk, and Legal Connect UK assumes no responsibility for any related outcomes.
Legal Connect UK may use automated methods to offer jobs and reserves the right to remove or exclude any listings at our sole discretion, without obligation to provide reasoning. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or reliability of any job listing or other information provided by employers or third-party users.
Legal Connect UK is committed to providing a comprehensive range of legal and advisory services designed to assist individuals, including immigrants, students, and other clients, in navigating various legal challenges. Our services include, but are not limited to, the following:
2.2. Student Legal Guidance
We offer specialized support tailored to the needs of international students in the UK. Our services address various issues that students may encounter.
2.3.2. General Disclaimer with Respect to Document Preparation
While Legal Connect UK takes every precaution to ensure that documents are prepared accurately and submitted on time, we do not guarantee the acceptance of any documents by third parties, including legal authorities. Clients are responsible for reviewing and approving all documents before submission. Legal Connect UK disclaims liability for any outcomes resulting from the content of the documents or the timing of their submission.
2.4. Job Placement and Support
Legal Connect UK offers job placement support tailored to the needs of international students and job seekers. We work to connect you with employers who value the unique skills and perspectives that international candidates bring.
2.4.1. Job Placement Offers
Employment opportunities created and provided by third parties over whom Legal Connect UK exercises no control; you acknowledge and understand that Legal Connect UK does not influence the content of employment postings, links to or from these postings, or any conditions third parties might impose once a candidate has submitted an application or left the website. If you exit the Legal Connect UK Site and choose to enter a third-party website, you accept any terms and conditions imposed by that third party. Legal Connect has no obligation to screen any employment postings or to include them in its search results or other listings and may exclude or remove any postings from the website or your search results without any obligation to provide reasoning for removal or exclusion.
Legal Connect UK may provide independent functionality to assist you. For example, Legal Connect UK may offer search options to help you narrow down employment posting search results by job type categories (i.e., full-time, part-time, etc.), and such categories are created independently and entirely by Legal Connect UK and may not directly or accurately reflect the content of the employment postings. Legal Connect UK may reformat employment listings so that you may read them more clearly on a mobile phone.
Legal Connect UK does not guarantee that applying to jobs through a dedicated page or website will lead to a better job application experience, a job interview, or a job offer. The dedicated pages or websites do not contain an exhaustive list of employment postings, and no inferences can be drawn with respect to postings or Employers that are not displayed on dedicated pages.
USAGE OF USER INFORMATION
By providing your information on the Legal Connect UK website, you are requesting and authorizing Legal Connect UK to make your information available to anyone accessing our website, such as employers that Legal Connect UK believes may have an interest in your information, users of Legal Connect, or anyone with access to the URL associated with your provided information. We offer you the option to make your information searchable on the website to help you find a job. You are responsible for keeping your information accurate and up-to-date. Information provided to employers or other agencies for the purpose of providing services to candidates may be controlled by third parties accessing the website, who can then make that information publicly available elsewhere. Legal Connect does not control such third parties. Changes to your information on the website may or may not be reflected in copies made by third parties. Legal Connect UK assumes no responsibility and disclaims all liability for your information or application information that you share with employers or otherwise make public.
3.1. Candidate Acknowledgement
By providing your information, you authorize Legal Connect UK to review and analyse your details and offer you feedback at our discretion.

This feedback is provided directly and may be accessible within your account. It is not shared with employers. Your use of any feedback or information provided through these services is entirely at your discretion. You are solely responsible for deciding which jobs to apply for and what information to include in your applications. Legal Connect UK assumes no responsibility and disclaims all liability for any actions you take based on the feedback provided. We do not guarantee that any recommended jobs are suitable for you.

Even when Legal Connect UK highlights items or shares a job ad with you, we assume no responsibility and disclaim all liability for the content, accuracy, completeness, legality, reliability, or availability of job ads or highlights.

- RECEIVING OF SERVICES
By using Legal Connect UK’s services, you gain access to a broad range of support tailored specifically for international students.
