Civil, Housing, Employment
We deliver free legal advice in Civil, Housing and Employment, aimed in particular for those who have an upcoming court case.
How we can help
Civil & Housing Legal Advice
We deliver free legal advice if you cannot afford a solicitor and have a civil case in a County Court, High Court or Court of Appeal. We can deliver this by phone, email or video conference.
All our legal services are for people who cannot afford a lawyer.
Our legal services are also for people resident in the UK who have a case in a court in England & Wales.
Our civil team cannot assist with criminal cases, personal injury or probate - we can give you details of solicitors or other agencies that can help you.
Employment Advice
We have a small service supporting people living in London and on low incomes with their employment legal matter, aiming to resolve at an early stage with your current or former employer.
