Help for people representing themselves

Representing yourself in court proceedings is a daunting and nerve wracking experience. Where do you turn when you need help?

There are some resources out there to help you if you find yourself in this position.

Resolution, who work to promote fairness and openness in family proceedings, have a link to videos that may help you: http://www.resolution.org.uk/editorial.asp?page_id=943

You may also consider looking at the Court Service website which has useful information, too: https://www.justice.gov.uk/contacts/hmcts/courts

We also offer Pay-as-You-Go and fixed fee funding options which enable you to obtain as much or as little advice as you may want throughout the proceedings. This keeps the costs low and you only ask for advice when you want it.
