Simpson Millar has a Legal Aid Agency contract and we can assess eligibility for Legal Aid.
We are experts in explaining how Legal Aid works and applying for it on behalf of our clients. If this doesn’t apply, we’ll be able to discuss other options for funding. This can include alternatives such as a no win no fee agreement, damages-based agreements, crowdfunding and fixed fee packages.
Our Public Law Solicitors advise a large number of young people over the age of 18 but under 25 who aren’t receiving support from children’s services as care leavers, even though they’re clearly entitled to it. So how do you know if you might be a care leaver and still eligible for support?
The Human Rights Act is a UK law passed in 1998 that lets you defend your human rights in Court. It enables you to force government, police and local Councils to treat you with fairness, dignity and respect.
