FREE LEGAL AID

• Free or inexpensive legal advice, assistance, or representation provided to those who, because to their financial condition, otherwise would not be able to get the same. Before initiating Free Legal Aid, due determination is required to save from any untoward situation at belated stage legal proceedings.

• Legal aid has a close relationship with the welfare state, and the provision of legal aid by a state is influenced by attitudes towards welfare. Legal aid is a welfare provision by the state to people who could otherwise not afford counsel from the legal system. Legal aid also helps to ensure that welfare provisions are enforced by providing people entitled to welfare provisions, such as social housing, with access to legal advice and the courts.
