Many people assume legal help always comes at a cost. In Denmark, legal aid (“retshjælp”) is free for those who meet certain criteria.
What is legal aid?
It’s free legal advice offered to people with low income. The support is provided by lawyers, law students, or qualified organizations.
Who qualifies?
You’re eligible if:
- Your income is below a certain limit (approx. 350,000 DKK for individuals)
- Your case is not too complex or expensive
- You haven’t already received state-funded aid for the same issue
