If you need legal advice related to your mortgage arrears, you can get a free in-person or online meeting with a solicitor. They will explain your legal situation and advise you about your options to solve your problem.

If you are called to court for repossession proceedings on your home, a duty solicitor or a court mentor will be there to help you.

The duty solicitor may be able to speak for you in court and explain the court proceedings to you.

The court mentor can answer any questions you have about what is happening and give you more information about Abhaile’s supports. Remember though, that they can’t speak for you in court.
