This requires you providing proof of income, savings, assets, housing costs, etc, to the Magistrates Court. If your case remains in the Magistrates Court, the Court may refuse you legal Aid, if your income exceeds the prescribed limits. If your case goes to the Crown Court, the Court Service will determine if your Disposable Household income exceeds 37,500 per annum.

I have recently been represented by Horsman Solicitors and I would like to leave my honest experience with this firm.
I have not had any experience using legal aid before and I was very dubious about the level of defence I would receive considering I was not paying anything towards my legal costs. However from start to finish Horsman solicitors were highly professional and dedicated to keeping me fully involved through every stage of the process. Well presented and clearly written letters were sent throughout the process keeping me informed with all relevant information that I needed to know along
