Legal Advice Assistance (Beratungshilfe)
Low-cost legal advice for people on a low income.
Those who cannot afford a lawyer can get legal advice assistance for out-of-court advice. You pay the lawyer at most a 15 euro contribution; the state treasury covers the rest. You obtain the eligibility voucher (Berechtigungsschein) at the local court (Amtsgericht) where you live.
