Do UK citizens have a right to legal advice?
<p>As a British citizen: If I can't afford to pay a solicitor to get legal advice, am I entitled to free legal advice from the government? </p>

<p>It depends on the circumstances, see <a href="https://www.gov.uk/legal-aid" rel="noreferrer">here</a>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>You’ll usually need to show that:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>your case is eligible for legal aid</p>
</li>
<li><p>the problem is serious</p>
</li>
<li><p>you can’t afford to pay for legal costs</p>
</li>
</ul>
