The Citizens Advice service helps people resolve their legal, money and other problems by providing free, independent and confidential advice, and by influencing policymakers.
Every Citizens Advice Bureau is a registered charity reliant on trained volunteers and funds to provide these vital services for local communities.

Citizens Advice Bureaux clients continue to face difficulties obtaining access to justice and we helped with 275,000 problems relating to the legal system in 2007/08. Significant barriers include high court fees and difficulties accessing, or ineligibility for, publicly funded services.
