Support: The law firm has been working to help women who have been in unsafe situations A BLACKBURN based solicitors firm has been providing free legal support to women escaping domestic abuse, following a rise in referrals over the last year. In particular, Ashwood Solicitors Limited, based on King s Court, has been working with South Ribble and Chorley women s refuges to provide help to those whose situations are further complicated by immigration matters, asylum, claims and issues relating to unaccompanied minors. The firm has also been able to help women in these situations to regularise their immigration status and in some case eventually get indefinite leave to remain.
