Sichuan Stipulates That All People In The Disaster Area Apply For Legal Aid.

Yesterday, the provincial legal aid center sent an urgent notice to all municipal and state legal aid centers, requiring all levels of legal aid agencies to set up a "green passage" for legal aid for earthquake relief quickly. The legal aid provided to the people in the disaster area was no longer censored by the legal aid. The legal aid was first processed after the loss of relevant identity documents could not be provided in time. After the adoption of orphans by the masses after the earthquake, the Legal Aid Center at all levels would assist the civil affairs department to answer legal advice and review the conditions of the adopter and draft the adoption agreement.

Open up "green channel" for earthquake relief work

Yesterday, the Provincial Legal Aid Center issued an urgent notice to urge the legal aid agencies at all levels to set up a "green passage for legal aid for earthquake relief" quickly, to carry out legal aid and assistance services for donation, adoption, industrial injury, inheritance, insurance, relief, real right and other legal aid in the earthquake relief work, to set up a 24 hour legal consultation telephone, and to establish a duty on duty system to ensure timely answers to the legal problems of the affected people.

At that time, people in need of legal aid may call the local legal aid hotline for 12348 to apply for legal aid.

Li Can, director of the Provincial Legal Aid Center, said that migrant workers and their children, three orphans (orphans, orphans, orphans and disabled persons) and minors are the specific objects of legal aid. The legal aid center will provide free judicial expertise to the injured.

Providing assistance without censorship of the economy

"The application for legal aid to the people in the disaster area will no longer censor its economic status, and 100% will be accepted."

Li Can told reporters that after the earthquake, many of the victims of the disaster area lost almost all their property, and documents and other materials were also lost in the earthquake. The economic review system necessary for legal aid before has become infeasible.

For this reason, the Provincial Legal Aid Center decided to go through legal aid first, and then fill in the relevant formalities.

Legal aid is also provided to the people in the disaster area for their application for declaration of disappearance or death.

For those who apply for legal aid, they should arrange for lawyers, notaries, judicial appraisers and other legal service personnel to handle the matter within 12 hours.

Providing legal advice for adoption of orphans.

After the earthquake, many well intentioned citizens had the idea of adopting orphans.

Li Can said that the adoption of orphans must be strictly in accordance with the relevant provisions of China's adoption law. At that time, the legal aid centers at all levels will assist civil affairs departments to answer legal advice on adoption of notarization, and examine the conditions of adopters and draft adoption agreements.

Yesterday, the Provincial Legal Aid Center contacted the provincial Civil Affairs Department to express this intention.

Li Can said that the next step is to arrange for lawyers to be on duty at the Civil Affairs Department on the spot, and to answer the legal questions about the adoption of the citizens on the spot. For the citizens who have adopted intention but do not accord with the adoption conditions, the lawyer will explain to them the reasons why they can not be adopted from a legal point of view, and guide them to assist the people in the disaster area in other ways.
