Dear Members of the Kuala Lumpur Bar,
The Bar Council Legal Aid Centre (Kuala Lumpur) provides legal representation to impecunious and unrepresented Malaysians and foreigners in the areas of criminal law, employment law, family law and Syariah Law. The Centre also manages the assignment of files, claims and training on behalf of the National Legal Aid Foundation, commonly known as Yayasan Bantuan Guaman Kebangsaan (“YBGK”).
As of 10 April 2025, twenty-seven (27) files under the YBGK scheme remain unassigned. We invite Members of the Kuala Lumpur Bar to adopt these files.
Kindly be informed that the assignment of the files is on a first-come, first-served basis. The secretariat will only inform lawyers who have successfully been assigned the file.
Please click here to view details of the unassigned YBGK Files and here to adopt a file.
Please be reminded that the adoption of YBGK files is only open to the lawyers who have successfully concluded Part 3 of the YBGK Training.
For any inquiries or concerns on any of the above matters, please do not hesitate to contact the Bar Council Legal Aid Centre (Kuala Lumpur) Secretariat at 03-2691 1122/ 03-2691 1123 or email us at ybgk.kl@malaysianbar.org.my (for YBGK Files).
