Legal aid is available for asylum applications and appeals. Due to the limited means of most asylum seekers that means that most such applications and appeals are funded from the public purse but, for example, a Russian oligarch seeking political asylum in the UK would have to fund his own legal expenses.

Mmmm, you do.
And the worst thing is, they'll never put back into the purse!
I.m amazed you had to ask! Prisoners seem to have a never ending access to free legal services,thinking back to the Hindley case etc..

Zebo, ' I.m amazed you had to ask ! '

I asked because I didn't know, but I believe legal aid is difficult to come by.

Thank you all for your answers.

Not if you face a possible infringement of your 'Uman Rites, you're challenging the decision of a State department and you haven't a pot to pee in, it isn't.
