Legal Services
Hakí Associates are lawyers, jurists, and advocates, located around the globe, working to protect rights and support the marginalized at the local level and across jurisdictions. We believe that justice and equity are universals norms that need defending, no matter where.
Hakí supports local, community justice providers around the world. Working with local NGO partners from our global network we provide legal services to vulnerable populations and promote reforms that increase access to justice. We combine both non-profit and market-based approaches to bring law and rights to the people.
Hakí has developed the first global for-profit grassroots justice platform that uses markets to increase access to legal services in countries where lawyers are rare and expensive. Hakí's Grassroots Justice Program builds on microfinance concepts to provide cost-effective legal assistance for pressing legal issues, including land registration and disputes, access to public services, and gender discrimination, using a community-centered model that promotes improved service to clients and entrepreneurship.
