If you have been arrested or have a case going to Court our Sheffield Legal Aid Solicitors will be able to check if you are entitled to financial help with the costs.
Whether you have been accused of theft, fraud, a violent crime or a driving offence you need to talk to our lawyers as soon as possible.
Legal Aid is not available to everyone and if you are eligible it will help pay for the costs of a solicitor or barrister to represent you in court or at a tribunal. Your case may not result in a Court appearance but Legal Aid will also help cover the costs of mediation in, for instance, family related matters.
If you are arrested in Sheffield and find yourself in Police custody or if you have been accused of a crime and don't know where to turn crime solicitors will be on hand to provide advice and support.
Legal Aid covers a multitude of areas but even if you are entitled, you may still have to pay something towards your costs.
Areas covered include;
If you have been arrested, questioned or charged by the police
Debt, for example if you are at risk of losing your home
Housing, if you are being evicted
Family issues, mediation if you are going through divorce
Education, dealing with a Special Educational Needs appeal
Community Care, if you are unhappy with the care of an elderly or disabled relative
