Abstract

The provision of legal aid to persons with disabilities in the judicial process often faces obstacles. They have lost the right to obtain justice due to the unfulfilled reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities. This study aims to find the provision of legal aid to persons with disabilities in the judicial process that is appropriate to the reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities in the judicial process. The study is empirical research with depth analysis of legal aid practice with reasonable accommodations. This research is empirical to research the handling of persons with disabilities facing the law by legal aid providers. Research on reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities has been widely carried out. However, the research related to the provision of legal aid following reasonable accommodation has never existed. Therefore, this study is expected to improve the condition of legal assistance to persons with disabilities. The provision of legal aid without considering reasonable accommodation creates obstacles to the resolution of the case. This study concluded that removing obstacles and providing legal assistance were carried out following reasonable accommodation by knowing the needs of disability, such as the needs of disability assistants and translators, legal, health, and psychosocial needs, recovery, and reintegration. The results of this study can be a guideline for advocates or legal aid institutions in providing legal assistance for persons with disabilities.
