Fife Law Centre is a registered charity which aims to improve access to justice and legal advice in the local Fife community for those who either have difficulty accessing legal services or who cannot afford other forms of legal representation.

The Law Centre opened on 4 November 2009 and is headed by Afshan Rathore, its Principal Solicitor.

It currently has offices at BRAG in Crosshill  near Lochgelly (open Monday – Friday) and at the Adam Smith College ‘Our Space’ Centre in Leven (open Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 1.30pm to 4.30pm subject to availability). 

The Centre has links with various local voluntary organisations such as Frontline Fife and Citizens Advice and Rights Fife (CARF) and so our solicitors can travel to see potential clients at a variety of locations throughout Fife.

The current core areas of the Law Centre’s work include:-

• Employment Law
• Housing Law 
• Child Law issues
• Small Claims

We can also offer general legal advice in other areas however, if an issue is out with the remit of the Law Centre’s work (e.g. criminal law, divorce/separation, contact/custody, conveyancing, wills/executries) or is a matter which requires more specialist advice, we will endeavour to refer the enquiry to another law firm or relevant organisation for further assistance (as appropriate).

*Please note that we cannot get involved in matters in which solicitors have already been instructed*

The Law Centre also holds legal seminars throughout the year for both local law firms and voluntary organisations and separately can provide more specialised advice/presentations to individual organisations on request.
