Volunteer lawyers

Our volunteer lawyers are a key part of the Legal Advice Centre and allow us to expand our advice provision to cover employment, family and personal injury law.

If you are a solicitor or barrister with at least 3 years PQE, please get in touch.

We provide the following support to our volunteer lawyers:

  • Set up all appointments for you
  • Employ a full-time administrator who provides all the support required
  • Employ a solicitor who supervised the students to produce drafts of the advice letters following the initial meeting
  • Ask you to approve the draft letters before they are sent out by us.
