A digital legal-aid network connecting people who need help with lawyers willing to help.
nCase Community gives qualified Filipinos a clearer way to ask for legal help and participating lawyers a structured way to see where help is needed. People prepare requests in their own words. After review, lawyers can consider them through the nCase app and choose where they are willing and able to assist.
01 / FOR PEOPLE
For people seeking legal aid
You do not need to know the legal name of your problem. You can start by telling us what happened.
It may involve family, work, property, or another legal concern. Tell us where it happened, what help you need, and whether you have a deadline or documents. You do not have to classify it first.
nCase Community guides you through preparing your request, one step at a time.
Preparing a request is free. Requests will open through community.ncase.ph at launch.

Lawyers may consider it

Connecting legal needs with lawyers willing to help.
Legal aid has two sides. Qualified Filipinos need a clearer place to begin; lawyers willing to help need a structured way to see where assistance is needed.
nCase Community provides the digital connection between them. It helps a person prepare a request, then gives participating lawyers a way to review requests and choose where they can serve.
06 / EXISTING LEGAL-AID EFFORTS
Built to connect and extend existing legal-aid efforts.
nCase Community is intended to complement, not replace, existing legal-aid efforts. As a digital layer alongside organizations already helping communities, it can help legal needs and available legal capacity find one another more efficiently.
Those efforts include work by the Integrated Bar of the Philippines, government and LGU initiatives, law schools, barangays, NGOs, legal-aid organizations, and other groups serving communities.
