Legal Framework for Ensuring Equal Justice: An Analytical Study of Legal Aid

By Aditya Raj (BBA., LL.B.), Rashtriya Raksha University, Gandhinagar.

 


Abstract


Legal aid evolved tremendously between antiquity and the present. People are now more conscious and have begun to sacrifice their interests for the sake of others.[1]Access to justice is greatly aided by legal assistance, especially for low-income and marginalized groups who would not otherwise have the means to deal with complicated legal systems. With an emphasis on their function in resolving inequities in legal representation, this essay examines the background, composition, and effects of Legal guidance projects. It examines key aspects of legal assistance schemes and highlights how they promote social justice. Along with assessing the challenges that legal support organizations confront, such as a shortage of financing, excessive demand, and institutional barriers—the research also suggests ways to improve their efficacy. By utilizing both statistical analysis and case studies, this research emphasizes the relevance of legal help in promoting an equitable as well as inclusive legal system and the necessity of ongoing funding and innovation for these vital services.
