Access to Justice Regardless of Means

Legal aid is government funding that pays for legal advice and representation for people who cannot afford it. Norman Lawson & Co. holds legal aid contracts for immigration and asylum matters — meaning qualifying clients receive the same expert representation as any private client, at no direct charge.

Legal aid is means-tested and merit-tested. We assess your eligibility at your first consultation, free of charge and without obligation.
