Pro Bono Focus Areas
Women's Rights & DV
Bail for Undertrial Prisoners
Many undertrial prisoners remain in custody merely because they cannot afford bail. We file bail applications and advocate for their release, ensuring their fundamental right to liberty is not denied by economic circumstance.
Labour & Wage Disputes
Daily wage workers and unorganized sector employees often face wage theft and exploitation. We assist them in filing complaints before Labour Courts and relevant authorities to recover their rightful wages.
Medical Negligence (Consumer)
Victims of medical negligence from economically weaker backgrounds are assisted with consumer forum complaints against hospitals and medical practitioners, seeking compensation and accountability.
Property Rights for the Poor
We assist individuals from marginalized communities in protecting their property rights, filing for possession, and resisting illegal evictions — ensuring their homes and livelihoods are safeguarded.
Legal Literacy Camps
Our advocates conduct legal literacy camps in villages, schools, and community centres across Vijayawada and Ongole — educating citizens about their fundamental rights, legal remedies, and access to justice.
