Bantuan Hukum, MiskinAbstract
Memberikan bantuan hukum kepada masyarakat menjadi hal penting bagi beberapa negara, dalam pemenuhan hak asasi manusia dan sebagai indikator negara hukum sekaligus. Pemberian Bantuan Hukum telah diatur dalam konstitusi atau Konvensi Internasional lainnya, selain dari sektor Hukum yang juga perlu diwujudkan, mencapai Keadilan Sosial dan perlindungan bagi setiap masyarakat di Indonesia. Ada banyak masyarakat miskin, pemahaman dan kesadaran hukum yang buruk dan menjadi hal penting untuk memiliki lembaga yang memberikan bantuan hukum kepada masyarakat.
Efektivitas pemberian bantuan hukum kepada orang-orang yang tidak mampu (orang miskin) sebelum diberlakukannya Undang-Undang Nomor 16 Tahun 2011 tentang Bantuan Hukum masih belum berjalan dengan baik. Hal ini disebabkan oleh faktor struktur hukum (kurangnya kesadaran advokat / pengacara hukum) dan faktor-faktor dalam hukum substantif (regulasi bantuan hukum yang tidak memadai). Namun, dengan diberlakukannya UU No. 16 Tahun 2011 Tentang UU tersebut terungkap jaminan hukum yang lebih kuat untuk pemberian bantuan hukum kepada mereka yang tidak mampu (orang miskin), walaupun pada kenyataannya mereka menemukan beberapa pengacara atau pengacara yang tidak bermoral yang masih enggan memberikan bantuan hukum kepada orang-orang yang tidak mampu.
