This calculator on the Scottish Legal Aid Boards website will give you an indication of whether or not you would qualify -

The above is for legal advice and assistance only, which you would receive at the start of your case. - if you were to proceed with divorce, you would need to re-apply for Civil LA, you can check your eligibility by using this calculator -
