You have the right to get legal advice from your lawyer while you’re in prison. You can contact your lawyer by phone from prison, and they can also visit or phone you. You can also send mail to your lawyer.
For more information, see the chapter “Visits, phone calls and mail: Communicating with people outside prison”
When you phone your lawyer from prison, there’s no limit on how long you can talk or on how often you can phone.
If you’ve applied for legal aid but you haven’t yet heard which lawyer has been assigned to you, you can phone the nearest Legal Aid office to find out about this.
