Funding Your Case
BSB solicitors are proud of our commitment to Legal Aid work and the Criminal Defence Service.
- If you are arrested, charged or summonsed to appear in court you may be eligible for free legal advice and assistance. Even if you are not eligible we offer all clients a first consultation free of charge. Please contact us for further details.
- Legal Aid in the Magistrates Court is means-tested, and unfortunately, only those on benefits or low incomes now qualify.
- However, we will offer competitive private client rates if you are not eligible for Legal Aid, and you can obtain a quote which will be dependent on the complexity of your case.
- If your case goes to the Crown Court, legal aid is available, but is also means-tested, however, you will always be granted legal aid but may have to pay a contribution to the government to cover all the costs of representing you in court. To find out more click here.
- We also offer a competitive service to business and private clients. We have experience of:
- Dti investigations
- HMRC enquiries including Hansard interviews
- POCA proceedings and confiscation at Magistrates Crown and High Court (from enforcement to challenge) and allegations of false accounting and money laundering
