Legal Aid is legal assistance for people who cannot afford to pay for a lawyer from their own resources. 

In Saskatchewan, those who are eligible can access the service of one of our experienced lawyers located throughout the province of Saskatchewan.  There are limits to what an individual can access through Legal Aid but we cover most criminal and family matters. 

The Provincial Government, through Saskatchewan Justice, funds The Saskatchewan Legal Aid Commission.  By agreement, the Government of Canada reimburses the Province for some legal aid expenditures on criminal matters and Youth Criminal Justice Act matters.
