Getting legal help in Derby

Derby's legal market serves both the city and a large part of Derbyshire. Alongside high street firms doing family, crime, conveyancing and wills, there are regional and national firms with offices here, and engineering and manufacturing businesses in the area keep a steady flow of commercial and employment work.

The Derby Combined Court Centre on Morledge handles county court, family and Crown Court cases, including bankruptcy. Criminal cases start at Derby Magistrates' Court on St Mary's Gate. Employment claims go to the Midlands East tribunal, with in-person hearings at the Nottingham Justice Centre on Carrington Street, and shorter hearings often by video.

Derbyshire Law Centre, based in Chesterfield, advises people across the county, including Derby, on debt, discrimination, housing and employment, though its free immigration line doesn't cover the city. If local firms can't help, Nottingham is thirty minutes away. Legal aid is still available for some family and housing cases, so check the means test.

Legal aid in Derby

Firms in Derby hold Legal Aid Agency contracts in Asylum and human rights, Children and social services, Criminal defence, Debt and insolvency, Domestic abuse and protection, Family and relationships, Housing and tenancy and Immigration and visas. Legal aid is means tested and a contract does not guarantee a firm has capacity, but these are the areas where public funding is available locally.
