Legal Advice and Support

Civil Rights Defenders offer free legal advice, primarily in matters related to discrimination. Our aim is to help you understand and assert your rights – whether you are seeking concrete legal guidance or need help finding the right authority or organization to turn to.

Legal Advice on Discrimination Issues

We offer free legal advice to individuals who believe they have been subjected to discrimination. Our services are primarily available to those living in Stockholm.

You can contact us for advice, support, or information about your rights and how to proceed if you have experienced discrimination.

Do you live outside Stockholm? There are 18 anti-discrimination agencies across Sweden that you can turn to. Find their contact details here.

How to Contact Our Legal Advice Service

Answers may take a while as we have many who contact us. Please note that we do not accept drop-in visits.

Other Issues

Subject to available resources, we may also offer legal advice on other human rights issues. Please note that in these cases, we can primarily offer guidance on where to turn for appropriate support. We receive a high volume of inquiries, and unfortunately, we cannot guarantee assistance in every individual case.
