We have undertaken Legal Aid work in Family Law cases for some time and we continue to do so. However, as of 1st April 2013 major changes have been made to the Legal Aid system that will affect whether you can claim legal aid for helping funding your case and what types of case are now eligible for funding.
For more information on how the changes might affect you, see this article written by our solicitor Ruth Allanson, a member of the Family Law Department here at Canter Levin & Berg.
Changes to Legal Aid in Family Law cases from 1st April 2013
As legal aid family solicitors in Liverpool, here at Canter Levin & Berg Solicitors we are committed to providing a publicly funded service for as long as public funding remains. We are able to offer you advice and guidance when applying for public funding for your legal case and we are also able to advise you as to whether you are going to be eligible to receive legal aid to cover part or all of your legal costs.
You may be eligible for public funding if you are in receipt of benefits or a low income. To find out more you can contact our legal aid solicitors by calling 0151 239 1000 or you can check whether you are likely to be eligible by using the official Legal Services Commission online calculator.
