I went to see the legal adviser and received full details, information package, and how to put legal documents in to the Sheriff's office and what to expect following my legal claim. I recommend that anyone needing advice on anything should go to the CAB, you may miss out on claims, legal, housing situations etc. I found that I got a lot more important information than I realized I needed to go to court.
Apppintment was simple to make however only afternoons available.
The staff member was very well informed and assisted me with my query in a very professional manner.
Great place all ppl are helpful and always find time for you, if you have any problems they help to resolve.
Cannot thank these people enough for their help -again - with filling out some forms.
Absolutely hopeless. First attended a meeting with them for to help with my Mother's pension credit, they claimed she wasn't entitled to Pension credit when in fact she was and is now in receipt of (thank you Shelter).
2 years later we tried them again for help with housing. They did contact the council on one occasion for us, but didn't bother to follow it up as promised, despite us calling for updates.
I've now just returned home after being turned away by them today (I never learn). They no longer help with appeals to benefit decisions, despite them telling me over the phone to come in for an appointment to discuss my appeal. This seems ridiculous, since i'm assuming appeals makes up a large part of benefit related issues people need help with.
So what do you help with CAB? I'm yet to find it.
Amazingly helpful volunteers who are so committed to helping you with their expertise.
Excellent service and received a lot of very useful advice.
Long wait to be seen and at times I knew more than the adviser by doing a quick internet search the day before.
Great for any advice on UK laws can appoint you to the right organisation or person.
I had an appointment here for Pension Wise and it was easy to find. Has nearby parking. Friendly reception staff. Private rooms. Waiting area and comfortable seating.
Great service , no question is a problem and go over everything and more to help with your queries
FANTASTIC Service .All Volunteers. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
The advisor was very helpful and it's brilliant to have a free service. Would be better if there was a legal advisor but all advisors have some level of knowledge.

If you require advice on anything, the friendly helpful staff here will help to resolve your problem
