Legal Aid Chesterfield

Are you in need of legal advice, in the Chesterfield area and trying to find a legal aid solicitor ?

There are certain situations in which individuals are eligible for legal aid. These are based on your financial circumstances and may cover all of your legal costs or only a part.

As things stand currently you won't be entitled to legal aid if your gross monthly income is in excess of £2,657.00. Your net  disposable income should not be more than £733 per month.

Additionally you won't be eligible for legal aid if you have savings in excess of £8,000. A persons age and their property assets are also included within the calculations.
