Patterson and Company are dedicated to providing high quality legal services to all clients, irrespective of their financial circumstances.
Legal Aid covers the cost of legal representation for those who might not otherwise be able to afford it. It ensure that everyone has the opportunity to access the best possible defence.
At your first consultation, one of our solicitors can advise you fully in relation to the application process. The Scottish Legal Aid Board review applications on a case by case basis. Our solicitors will advise you fully of that criteria to be met and will apply for legal aid on your behalf.
Please do not assume, that just because you are working, you will not qualify for legal aid. We will guide you through the process, and by understanding your financial circumstances fully, will improve your chances of a successful application.
