The AI legal assistant for the UK. With the statute cited.
CoCounselor explains UK law in plain English and cites the Act and section behind every answer. Check your rights as a renter, employee or consumer, understand a letter you've received, and draft a reply or a contract before deciding whether you need a solicitor.
Questions you can ask CoCounselor
- Can my landlord evict me, and how much notice do they have to give?

- Can I get a refund for faulty goods?
- Is this discrimination at work?
- How do I get a copy of the data a company holds on me?

England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland
The UK has three legal systems: England and Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Some laws apply everywhere, but housing, family law and court procedure often differ, so the right answer depends on where you live.
CoCounselor takes your location into account and flags when a rule only applies in part of the UK. For tribunal claims, court proceedings or anything with a deadline, it recommends speaking to a solicitor or an advice service.
