About

FreeLegalWeb is a collaborative project which will provide intuitive, joined-up, public access to the law and legal guidance:

  • via a user-generated knowledge base of guidance on the law
  • underpinned by direct access to all publicly available primary law and related resources
  • joined up by a content-analysis system automatically connecting articles to related primary law and other resources on the internet.

It will benefit all who require better, affordable access to the law, providing a wide-ranging public and community service via a Community Interest Company.

See the Project page for full details of the project.

See the Participate pages for details of how you can get involved.

See the Legal page for our legal notices and terms of service.

Beta release

This site is a Beta release of the proposed service, providing:

  • core end-user functionality for browsing and searching the resources
  • a selected range of primary and secondary law resource records in the Citator; and
  • authored content focused on Housing Law.

Many features we’d like to implement have yet to be developed or may not be fully functional. We explain these limitations on the Why can’t I … ? page.

We’d like your feedback on how we can improve the service to meet your needs.
