The member can either pay an annual membership fee to Law For All Legal Aid Society according to the fee structure or alternatively the pay monthly premiums depending on the members' preference. This will entitle the member to make use of all the unique and professional services provided for.
4.1 What We Do. Almost without exception, all individuals will experience legal problems during the course
of their lives. Legal rights do not distinguish between a highly skilled or a poorly skilled person, between rich or poor. Our membership breakdown reflects this reality and cuts across the entire Zimbabwean society. Inequality and disregard for individual rights arise when there is an imbalance of bargaining power. Law 4 all brings that balance of power to the dispute. Our reputation is such that one phone call to our legal advisors is usually sufficient to bring most transgressors to their senses. When we have to act, we act with our full resources and win or lose; we cover the cost for our members. It is sometimes necessary for Law For All to refer a Member to an attorney. This usually occurs when the member has a legal problem that must be heard in court. These are often cases where a member has been charged with committing an offence (a criminal matter) and/or civil disputes (litigation). Law For All Legal Aid Society may not, by law, handle these legal problems in- house.
4.2 Why should you join Law4All Legal Aid Society? Being exploited is costly. Not having a lawyer on your side when you need one is even more costly. As a member of Law4All Legal Aid Society you get immediate assistance from us for all legal problems and payment is made directly to the attorney. We pay as per the Law For All terms and conditions. As a Law For All member, you don't have to worry about unforeseen legal problems or costs. Our 24 hour Legal Line to professional assistance anywhere in the country means 24 hour peace of mind. Be legally prepared, whether you are wrongly sued or you wish to sue someone for a wrong done to you.
