In the coming weeks, you will see changes to how our guidelines look on the Handbook for lawyers website.

Following feedback from practitioners and our Grants staff, these changes are being made to bring consistency to language and improve readability.

While some guidelines may look different, there are no changes being made to client eligibility or fees. We will continue to assess applications under the guidelines in the same way.
