Commonly asked before choosing the right solicitor
It depends. Three things have to line up: your problem has to be one that legal aid covers, your income and savings have to be under the limits, and your case has to have a realistic chance of success. Providers marked Legal aid can check all three with you, and Remedy can help you gather and review what they will ask for.
Some of the organisations listed provide their service entirely free. Others offer a free initial consultation, often around 30 minutes. Each profile shows how the provider charges, so you can choose who to contact.
It depends on your situation. Nationwide options include Shelter and Citizens Advice, and there are many local and issue-specific charities too. Everyone listed here is independent, and you contact them directly.
Remedy Legal continuously monitors for updates to any of the services listed in this directory. Despite our best efforts, we cannot warrant the live accuracy of information listed here. Please contact individual persons or services to confirm availability, costs, or eligibility requirements. Being listed here does not mean anyone has agreed to take your case, and does not imply any partnership or relationship between the listee and Remedy Legal.
