Legal clinic

Legal processes can be daunting. We can offer you advice to navigate the Scottish legal system. Whether that be help with negotiating with someone who owes you money or escalating that to a court procedure or interpreting your title deeds to sort out a neighbour dispute. We work with our partners at The Legal Service Agency who are solicitors to work to find a solution. We can also provide free court representation in suitable cases or point you in the direction of someone who can.  Our service is free, confidential and impartial. We look forward to hearing from you.

Here are some examples of the areas we cover:

• Receiving refunds for goods not received
• Examining consumer contracts to check if the terms are fair
• Challenging a neighbour’s right to carry out works on your property
• Explaining the process of tying up a deceased person’s estate
• Poor repairs carried out on a vehicle
• Complaints to Ombudsmen
• Advice on unfair dismissal and discrimination
• Debt advice including rent arrears, mortgage arrears and sequestration
