Do you need advice and /or legal assistance? We offer free legal advice in specific areas of law to people in need of non-urgent legal advice, who are not eligible for legal aid and cannot afford to pay.
Our ULLAC Legal Advice Centre offers free legal advice and assistance either directly by advising you at one of our clinics or in writing. We are a member of a charity based in England and Wales committed to enabling access to justice through free legal advice.
Our students play a crucial role in providing the service by interviewing clients, undertaking research and providing advice. They are fully trained, comply with professional rules of conduct that are expected by the profession and supervised by experienced and qualified lawyers at all times. This service is part of their training to become the lawyers of the future.
