Free legal advice for the LGBT business community
Once a month, advice sessions are dedicated to start-ups, established businesses, social enterprises and charities looking to support the LGBT community.
We are able to support the following organisations:
* Charities with a turnover of less than £1million
* Businesses with a turnover of less than £100,000
* Social Enterprises with a turnover of less than £1million if non-profit and a turnover of less than £250K if profit-making
* Start-up companies and sole traders
Organisations and individuals do not have to exclusively serve the LGBT community. However, a primary focus of their work should be concerned with providing a tangible benefit to the LGBT community.

Law for the Arts
Once a month we offer free advice to people who are involved in the creative industries and have a legal concern relating to their work. If you are a budding web-designer, musician, artist, writer, sculptor, designer or actor who cannot afford to access the legal advice you need then we may be able to help.
The Law for the Arts centre is the first University in London to dedicate an advice evening specifically for those working in the creative industries.
