Family Law Legal Aid Clinic

Blackhurst Budd LLP has introduced a new Family Law Legal Aid Clinic in Blackpool.

This is to provide an opportunity for members of the public who require advice on Family Law to have a free meeting with a member of our Family Department to ascertain if they are eligible for any state assisted Legal Aid funding schemes.

The Clinic runs every Tuesday morning and Thursday afternoon. Appointments must be made in advance by telephoning our reception on 01253 629300 and asking to speak to a member of our Family Department.
