Cybercrime & Cyber Cases — Legal Aid
Accused of a computer or cyber offence? Cyber cases are defended through the criminal legal aid system. Find criminal defence solicitors who offer legal aid.
How legal aid works for cyber cases
There is no separate "cybercrime" legal aid scheme. Offences such as those under the Computer Misuse Act 1990 (unauthorised access / hacking), online fraud, malware, denial-of-service, and cyber-enabled offences are prosecuted as criminal matters — so they're covered by criminal legal aid, delivered by criminal defence solicitors.
- Legal aid for criminal cases is means- and (for some) merits-tested.
- At the police station, advice is free to everyone, regardless of means.
- Look for a firm that does Criminal Defence and offers legal aid (listed below).
- Complex cyber cases may also touch fraud, data protection or IP — ask the firm about relevant experience.
General information, not legal advice. Eligibility is decided by the Legal Aid Agency. Check GOV.UK — Legal Aid.
