Find out in under 3 minutes whether you qualify for government-funded legal aid. Confidential, free, and no obligation.
If you're on a low income or receiving certain benefits, you may be entitled to free or partially-funded legal help. Our eligibility check looks at three main factors.
Income, savings, and assets are assessed against government thresholds (currently around £32,000/year gross income). Many people on low or middle incomes qualify for some level of support.
Legal aid covers areas like family matters, housing, immigration, mental health, and cases involving serious harm. We'll tell you if your case qualifies.
Your case needs to have reasonable prospects of success. We help you understand whether your situation meets the standard.
If you get Income Support, Universal Credit, JSA (income-based), or ESA (income-related), you likely pass the means test automatically.
