Your right to free legal representation
If you are below the poverty line, a woman, or a member of a marginalized group, you are legally entitled to complete, cost-free legal aid in India. We connect you directly with verified advocates.
Who is entitled to free aid?
Under Section 12 of the Legal Services Authorities Act, several groups are guaranteed complete legal representation. This ensures that financial hardship never stands in the way of protecting your rights.
Low-Income Families
Single Women & Children
Marginalized Groups
Any citizen with an annual income below the state-specified limit or holding a valid BPL card qualifies immediately. We help you submit the necessary certificates to start your case.
All Single women and children, regardless of their financial status, income, or background, are legally entitled to free legal counsel and drafting services under Indian law.
Members of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, industrial workers, and victims of systemic injustice receive complete, cost-free legal representation from our network of verified advocates.
