Free Legal Advice Clinic

The Legal Advice Clinic is a free service offered by Law students, academics and local professionals.

The clinic provides legal advice in several areas of law which we believe may prove to be relevant for our potential clients; e.g.

  • Landlord and Tenancy Law
  • Employment Law
  • Contractual Disputes
  • The Clinic cannot advise on actions against the University of Leicester, Criminal Law, and Personal Injury cases.
  • The Clinic cannot advise against issues that have already been to court, are going to court, or you have already / are seeking legal help from a practising firm at the time of the interview.
