What is legal aid?
Legal aid includes mechanisms that help people with limited means access justice.
Key concepts and application
Court-cost relief and lawyer assistance may involve different institutions and tests. Financial circumstances, case type and documents are assessed. Receiving aid does not mean the case will succeed.
Rights, procedure and limits
Check current official guidance for channels, coverage and costs. Mandatory defense in criminal proceedings differs from legal aid in a civil case.
