Legal Aid
Legal aid is publicly funded help with legal costs in England and Wales, run by the Legal Aid Agency. Firms hold a separate contract for each category of law they cover, and whether someone qualifies depends on their financial means and the type of case. DJMS Solicitors Ltd appears in the agency's published data as a provider in the categories below.
Defence representation for people arrested, charged, or facing prosecution, including police station, magistrates court, and Crown Court work.
Criminal legal aid covers the cost of a solicitor when you have been arrested, charged with a crime, or are facing prosecution. The duty solicitor scheme means anyone arrested can ask for a free solicitor at the police station regardless of income, with no means test. Once a case reaches court, eligibility for representation is means and merits tested.
Available at these offices: Consett, Gateshead, Newcastle Upon Tyne, North Shields and 1 more
8 duty solicitor schemes
Specialist representation for people in prison on parole, sentence calculation, adjudications, and conditions.
Prison Law covers the legal needs of serving prisoners, including parole hearings, sentence calculation disputes, prison disciplinary adjudications, and challenges to treatment or conditions inside prison. Solicitors with this contract visit prisons regularly and know prison-specific procedure. It is a specialist add-on to the standard Crime contract; only around 10% of crime firms hold it, so finding a Prison Law specialist can be hard.
Available at these offices: Newcastle Upon Tyne
