Do you have a quick question for a lawyer?

The Team from Citizens Advice Christchurch Area

On Thursday each week we hold free lawyer clinics.

These clinics allow you to see a lawyer at no cost for 10 mins. So, if you need help understanding a legal document or deciding whether to pursue a legal case, then this is a great starting point.

- 1pm - 133 Brighton Mall (entrance on Union Street, SBA office) – 03 366 6490
- 6.15pm - 8 Goulding Ave (Hornby community centre) – 03 349 5236

You will be given a number when you arrive, so everyone is seen in order and usually the lawyer can see 5-7 clients.

If you need a specialist lawyer or advisor for immigration, employment or ACC then email christchurchclinics@outlook.com to make an appointment with the separate clinics.
