Lawyers for Children and Young People

This service is Free to use
Delivered by: Clan Childlaw
Last updated: 09/09/2025

Clan Childlaw provide free legal advice and representation for children and young people in Scotland.

If a child or young person needs their own solicitor we can represent children and young people in Edinburgh and the Lothians, Glasgow and the surrounding area.

We provide outreach services – that means that the child or young person can choose a time and place where they are comfortable and we will come out to meet them.

Our help is always free for children and young people – they will never have to pay a fee for a Clan Childlaw lawyer.

We work in a child-centred way which means we listen and let the young person set the pace and communicate in the way that works best for them.

If we cannot take a case, we will do what we can to help you to find a local, legal aid lawyer for the child or young person you are working with. If you’d like to know more, get in touch.
