| Community Legal Services Quality Mark |
The IAU has been awarded the Quality Mark by the Community Legal Services (CLS) and is listed in the CLS Directory. The Directory provides details of all solicitors, advice agencies and information providers across England and Wales who hold or have committed to the CLS Quality Mark.
The Advice Unit has achieved the General Help level of service.
See Community Legal Services website for more information about Community Legal Services and the Quality Mark.
The CLS has developed its Quality Mark to help people gain trust in the legal system. The Quality Mark is awarded only to organisations that pass regular Quality checks carried out by the Legal Services Commission.
When you approach a Quality Marked organisation for help, you can be confident of receiving a service that meets an agreed minimum standard. Whenever you use a CLS Quality Marked service, the referral network will ensure that you are signposted or referred to the most appropriate source of help. If the first organisation you contact cannot help, they will signpost or refer you to another organisation which will be better placed to help you. To gain a Quality Mark, providers have to show that they meet the standard for the level of service they offer – for example, Information, General Help or Specialist Help.The Advice Unit has achieved the General Help level of service.
