Legal assistance should not be out of reach. Legal aid work is undertaken in appropriate cases to support individuals who face genuine difficulty in obtaining legal representation.
How legal aid requests are considered
Assistance may be provided in selected criminal and family law matters, including situations that require urgent attention and legal intervention. Every request is considered on a case-by-case basis, with regard to the nature of the matter, its urgency, and the circumstances involved, including financial considerations where relevant.
Legal aid is approached with the same level of care, preparation, and responsibility as all other matters, with a focus on clear guidance and practical direction. Where assistance cannot be offered, alternative arrangements may be discussed where appropriate.
How the first enquiry works
For sensitive matters, the first step should be clear. The enquiry process helps you understand what to prepare and how Aaron can assess the next legal step.
1. Confidential enquiry
Share the nature of your matter through the contact form or your preferred enquiry channel.
2. Initial review
Aaron considers the issue, its urgency, the available information, and the key documents involved.
3. Legal direction
You receive practical guidance on possible next steps and what may need to be prepared.
4. Representation
Where representation is required, the matter is handled with preparation, care, and discretion.
