Abstract

Technological advances in Indonesia have driven transformations in various sectors, including in the provision of legal aid services by advocates. This study examines the effectiveness of providing legal aid through digital media from a legal perspective, focusing on the opportunities and challenges faced in its implementation. Through a normative legal approach, this study analyzes the legal framework governing the practice of digital legal aid, including the Advocates Law, the ITE Law, and the Advocate Code of Ethics. The results of the study indicate that providing legal aid through digital media can increase the accessibility of legal services, especially for people in remote areas. However, its implementation still faces various challenges, such as the absence of specific regulations, data security issues, and digital infrastructure gaps. Advocates who provide services online can be categorized as Electronic System Organizers who must comply with the provisions of the ITE Law, especially regarding data protection and electronic transaction security. This study concludes that comprehensive regulatory updates are needed to regulate the practice of digital legal aid, as well as improving digital infrastructure and literacy to ensure service effectiveness. Key recommendations include the preparation of technical guidelines for the provision of digital legal aid and strengthening data security systems to protect client interests.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of technology in Indonesia has catalyzed transformation across various sectors, including the provision of legal aid services by advocates. This study investigates the effectiveness of delivering legal aid through digital media from a juridical perspective, with particular emphasis on the opportunities and challenges associated with its implementation. Employing a normative juridical approach, the research examines the legal frameworks regulating digital legal aid practices, notably the Advocate Law, the Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE) Law, and the Advocate Code of Ethics. The findings indicate that digital media can significantly enhance the accessibility of legal services, particularly for communities in remote areas. Nevertheless, the implementation of digital legal aid faces persistent challenges, including the absence of specific regulatory provisions, concerns over data security, and disparities in digital infrastructure. Advocates providing online legal services may be classified as Electronic System Providers and are thus obliged to comply with the provisions of the ITE Law, especially those relating to data protection and the security of electronic transactions. The study concludes that comprehensive regulatory reforms are essential to govern the practice of digital legal aid effectively, alongside efforts to improve digital infrastructure and literacy. Key recommendations include the development of technical guidelines for digital legal aid delivery and the reinforcement of data security systems to safeguard clients’ interests.
