Public Funding, also commonly known as 'Legal Aid', is generally
available for medical negligence claims,
professional negligence claims against
solicitors, claims against the police and public interest personal injury claims. Most personal injury
claims no longer attract public funding.
“Public Funding" is operated by the Legal Services Commission
(LSC). You may be entitled to support if you have a good claim and
if you satisfy the financial requirements. Children under 16 are
assessed on their own financial means, not their parents’ means,
and usually meet the financial criteria as a result.
We hold a contract for Public Funding in
medical negligence claims and are therefore able to offer emergency
Legal Representation in appropriate cases without delay.
