Which department do you want to seek legal aid from?
You can go to the legal aid center of the local judicial bureau for help.
Legal aid institutions are institutions responsible for organizing, guiding, coordinating, supervising and implementing legal aid work in their own regions, collectively referred to as "legal aid centers". The Ministry of Justice of the People's Republic of China has a legal aid center to guide and coordinate the legal aid work throughout the country. Judicial administrative organs at all levels should actively report to the Party committee and government, strive for the support of relevant departments, set up legal aid centers as soon as possible, and guide, coordinate and organize legal aid work in their own regions. Where there is no legal aid center, the judicial bureau shall appoint personnel as legal aid centers. Law firms, notary offices and grassroots legal service institutions shall implement legal aid under the unified coordination of local legal aid centers. Legal aid activities carried out by other organizations and schools shall be subject to the guidance and supervision of the local legal aid center.
Article 3 of the Regulations on Legal Aid Legal aid is the responsibility of the government. The people's governments at or above the county level shall take active measures to promote legal aid, provide financial support for legal aid, and ensure the coordinated development of legal aid and economy and society.
The funds for legal aid shall be used for special purposes, and shall be subject to the supervision of the financial and auditing departments.
Regulations on Legal Aid The judicial administrative department of a municipality directly under the Central Government, a city divided into districts or the people's government at the county level shall determine the legal aid institutions within its administrative area according to needs.
