The Jigsaw Charity quotes the following about McKenzie friends on their website:

"Our McKenzie Friends have undertaken courses of legal training in family law, this means that when a Judge or magistrate address you on the spot you won't be left floudering, unsure of what to say, unaware of the repercussions of anything you may respond with. Instead you'll recieve good, sound legal advice and improve your confidence to deal with these instances."

It the provides a direct link to this chaps website when looking for McKenzie friends....

So you don't need Solicitors but you do need (not really) "legally trained" advisors to provide you with (not really) "good, sound legal advice".
