Most people living or working within our catchment area are eligible for a first free interview with one of our solicitors. Our interviews tend to last around 45 minutes, but will depend upon the kind of legal matter(s) involved.

Ongoing assistance, including representation, is assessed on a case-by-case basis against our client eligibility criteria. These criteria include the legal merit in the matter, as well as the financial means of the client.

We can usually accommodate our clients needs when it comes to booking appointments, including phone interviews or arranging interpreters, free of charge to the client.

If there are any other costs associated with your matter (eg. court costs, application fees, etc.), you will be advised during your appointment. Northern Community Legal Service does not accept liability for your costs.
