Help at court

We run a court desk service on possession hearing days at Plymouth Combined Court. Please ask to speak to the duty adviser when you arrive at court.

Housing rights workshops

We offer housing rights workshops for support workers and other professionals who help service users with housing problems. These give an introduction to housing law and how to give initial advice.

Free legal help service

We have a small team of advisers who can help if you can get advice under legal aid rules. We can sometimes help even if you cannot get legal aid but we cannot take on every case.

You need an appointment to speak to our legal team. To make an appointment, please call 0344 515 1880 Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. This number is for new legal appointments only.
