Abstract

This study is motivated by the limited understanding and access of the public especially children and former spouses to divorce court procedures, resulting in frequent neglect of their rights. It aims to identify the advocate’s role in providing legal aid for fulfilling the rights of children and former wives in court and to evaluate the effectiveness of representation methods. Employing a normative-juridical approach through library research on legislation, doctrine, and relevant legal literature, data were analyzed descriptively and analytically. The findings reveal that advocates perform key functions, including legal counseling, drafting and filing lawsuits or reconventions, courtroom representation, and facilitating mediation and legal education, significantly enhancing the enforcement of mut’ah, iddah maintenance, child support, and custody rights. The study’s implications highlight the necessity for improved technical competence of advocates, standardized assistance procedures, and cross-institutional collaboration to expand access to justice for vulnerable groups.
