Lewisham Law Centre

Lewisham Law Centre (founded in 1974) is a community-based law service that promotes access to legal rights and equality of opportunity. It is a registered charity employing solicitors and paralegals to provide free and independent legal advice and representation to people living, working or studying in the London Borough of Lewisham. Sadly the Law Centre closed in June 2008. The closure was as a result of Lewisham council withdrawing its funding despite the crucial role it played in providing legal advice and casework to the local community.
