Legal rights

Free legal advice

You can get free legal information and advice in Ireland. Civil legal aid from the Legal Aid Board is available if you have a low income.

  • FLAC runs free legal advice clinics and an information line.
  • The Legal Aid Board gives civil legal aid (family law, international protection and more) — there is a means test and a small contribution.
  • For workplace problems, the Workplace Relations Commission can help.
