We understand family matters are sensitive. Our experienced solicitors are here to help with complete confidentiality.
Legal aid is a government-funded service that helps people who cannot afford to pay for legal representation and in family law is available for those who have experienced domestic abuse or are at risk of it, as well as for children in need of protection.
Our goal is to find amicable, cost-effective solutions that minimise conflict and emotional strain so that clients can go through the legal process as smoothly as possible.

To qualify for legal aid, you must pass two key tests:
This test looks at your financial situation to determine if you qualify for legal aid. It considers your income, savings, and household circumstances. If your income falls below a certain threshold, or if your savings are low, you may qualify for legal aid. This ensures that legal aid is available for those who cannot afford private legal fees.
You can check your eligibility using the Legal Aid Eligibility Calculator.
This test evaluates whether your case has a strong chance of success. It looks at whether the benefit of pursuing legal action justifies the cost of the proceedings. To qualify, your case must have a 50% or greater chance of success. If the case is unlikely to succeed, legal aid may be denied.
If you need help with the legal aid gateway process, we’re here to assist. You can also review the accepted documents for legal aid gateway evidence.
