Al Momin Legal Aid Foundation

Welcome To
Al Momin Legal
Aid Foundation

Giving free legal services to the poor and needy who cannot afford an attorney's services in order to undertake a case or a legal action in a court, tribunal, or before a judicial authority is known as legal aid.

In essence, the preamble of the Indian constitution seeks to provide socioeconomic and political justice to the Indian people. Legal assistance, as His Lordship Justice P.N. Bhagwati succinctly put it, is a system in society that makes the machinery of administration of justice conveniently accessible and within reach of those who need to use it to enforce the rights that the law has granted to them. According to Article 38(1), the State must uphold and defend the social order, including justice, in order to further the welfare of the populace. Everyone has an equal right to life and liberty, barring circumstances specified by law, according to Article 21 of the Constitution.

In order to ensure that no citizen is denied the opportunity to pursue justice due to financial or other limitations, the State must ensure that the functioning of the legal system promotes justice on the basis of equal opportunity. In particular, the State must provide free legal aid through appropriate legislation or programmes or in any other manner.

In the case of Hussainara Khatoon v. State of Bihar, it was decided that any accused person has a right to free legal help at the state's expense if he is unable to pay for legal representation.

Not everyone is able to afford the costs associated with legal proceedings. If justice is harmed as a result of the "rich and poor" divide, it is not justified. Justice Harry Blackmun was correct when he stated that "the principle of seeking justice cannot be equated with the value of cash. Justice is not bought with money. For people who need justice but are unable to pay the associated costs, free legal counsel serves as a stepping stone.

Al Momin Legal Aid Foundation India, which was established in October 2021 with the goal of integrating legal aid and awareness initiatives, has forayed into a variety of fields, including legal aid, legal awareness, legal intervention, legal journalism, and legal activism, all with the overarching goal of fostering the positive development of society with a strong socio-legal perspective.

The Al Momin Legal Aid Foundation India team promotes legal action because we think that society and the law are intertwined. Because of their close ties, law and society must both be changed in equal measure if we are to bring about the desired change in the world. Al Momin Legal Aid Foundation India believes in a better and more promising future. We don't only think of ourselves as passengers on this change-driven journey; rather, we think of ourselves as driving the change.
