Self Referral form


Please note this appointment is an ADVICE legal appointment only. 

The free legal advice provided by FLAG DV is available only to people experiencing domestic abuse. Domestic abuse is defined as an incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive, threatening, degrading and violent behaviour, including sexual violence, in the majority of cases by a partner or ex-partner, but also by a family member. 

Anyone forced to alter their behaviour because they are frightened of their partner’s reaction is being abused. 

Our service is for anyone who is experiencing domestic abuse, whether you have left the relationship or are still in it



Currently we are not able to accept referrals from other counties. You may find it useful to visit www.lawworks.org.uk as this is a charity who also offer free legal advice. Alternatively, the following services may be of assistance:
  • https://www.lawcentres.org.uk/i-am-looking-for-advice
  • otherwise your nearest Citizens Advice Bureau may be able to suggest additional local legal support.
If you are worried for your safety and in immediate danger, please phone 999. If you require the police but it is not an emergency, please ring 101. You may also wish to contact the National Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0808 2000 247.
