Explaining civil legal aid and advice and assistance.

By children we mean anyone under 16, or someone who is 16 or 17 and the children’s hearing has placed them on a compulsory supervision order.

Information on Children’s legal assistance, and types of that may be available to you, in children’s hearings and related court cases.

Someone involved in a civil court case may apply for legal aid. If you are also involved in the case, this could affect you. If your opponent has applied for legal aid, you can tell us of any concerns you have or give us relevant information. This is called “making representations”.
