We have a contract with the Legal Aid Agency for criminal defence work.
This means that we can provide many of our criminal defence services without charge to those who are eligible. If you do not qualify for legal aid, or you do not want to be legally aided, we can represent you on as a private-paying basis.
Legal aid is available in some appeal cases, but this depends on individual circumstances. We can discuss whether you are likely to be eligible for legal aid. If you are not eligible for legal aid for your appeal, we can discuss how to fund your appeal on a private-paying basis.
We will always discuss with you how much the appeal is likely to cost and whenever possible, we will agree to fix our costs for each stage of the appeal process. To begin with, this may include agreeing a fee with you to look at your case to provide a preliminary opinion on the merits of an appeal.
