Legal assistance by law students
Law students of the universities offer legal counsel free of charge by phone
Free legal counsel
Law students of the associations Orator at the University of Iceland and Lögrétta at the Reykjavík University offer free legal counsel by phone. The law students are advanced in their studies and are under the supervision of practicing lawyers. This way the law students gain valuable experience and the public can receive legal counsel without having to pay for it. Full confidentiality is upheld.
Counsel can be received during the school year, i.e. from September into April, except for December as this is exam time. You can call Lögrétta on Tuesdays from 5-7pm at tel. 777-8409 and Orator on Thursday evenings from 7:30-10pm at 551-1012.
If you have any questions outside of this time, you can send an email to Lögrétta at logrettalaw@logretta.is or to Orator at orator@hi.is.
