In a rule of law, the state guarantees equality before the law and recognizes and protects human rights, so that all people have the right to be treated equally before the law (equality before the law).

The form of legal assistance is the existence of a defense or assistance from an advocate (access to legal counsel). Legal aid standards in litigation are implemented in case handling: (a) Criminal; (b) Civil Code; and (c) State Administration. Types of non-litigation Legal Aid activities carried out by Legal Aid Providers include: (a) Legal Counseling; (b) Legal Consultation; (c) Investigation of cases, both electronically and non-electronically; (d) Legal Research; (e) Mediation; (f) Negotiation; (g) Community Empowerment; (h) Outside court assistance; and (i) Drafting legal documents.
