Legal Advice Clinic

The University of Worcester’s law school are delighted to relaunch the University of Worcester’s Legal Advice Clinic, based in the Hive library.

legal-advice-clinic

Welcome to the University of Worcester’s Legal Advice clinic. We are a small, volunteer led clinic offering free, confidential legal advice in non-urgent matters relating to family law, personal injury and medical negligence. Advice will be given by local qualified solicitors at the Hive. Trained University of Worcester law students will assist the solicitor for example by attending the meeting and taking notes.

Advice is given by appointment on a first come, first serve basis. Appointments are subject to our volunteers’ expertise and availability, and we have a limited number of appointments we can offer during term time only (November to May).

Please be aware that we are an advice only clinic. This means we are unfortunately unable to provide services such as representation at court or help with drafting documents. We are also unable to advise on the following matters:

  • Domestic violence
  • Inquests
  • Actions against the police
  • Any matter which is urgent

We will need to take some preliminary information from you before an appointment can be offered, to ensure we can help. Where are unable to help, we will do our best to refer you to organisations that can.

All information received is held in the strictest of confidence.

To enquire about an appointment please email lawclinic@worc.ac.uk
