Legal aid is a constitutional right for Indonesian citizens to obtain legal protection and equality. The existence of Law Number 16 of 2011 is a manifestation of that constitutional right. Fulfillment of legal aid for the poor in Bogor City has been partially implemented using APBD funds in accordance with Regional Regulation No. 3 of 2015 concerning Legal Aid for the Poor and Mayor Regulation Number 39 of 2015 as the Implementing Regulation. The provision of legal aid to the poor in Bogor which refers to the Bogor City Regulation No. 3 of 2015 concerning Legal Aid for the Poor has not yet been realized specifically for the people of Bogor City. This is due to obstacles from external and internal factors in its implementation, namely in the form of a Legal Assistance Organization  which is only one accredited at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights and limited funds for absorption of legal aid implementation activities. Therefore, the  Government needs to involve Legal Aids (LKBH-LKBH) in private university institutions in Bogor and its surroundings to be able to realize the plan for establishing Legal Consultation innovations (legal clinics) in 68 urban office Bogor City

Providing legal assistance to the poor continues by the government to realize legal access and justice for all levels of society. Several regulations regarding legal aid have been issued by the state through the law and implementing regulations, but the fact is that the provision of legal aid is not yet effective. This causes a lack of access to law and justice for the poor. The effectiveness of providing legal aid by the government needs to be assessed to see how effective the legal aid program provided by the government is to realize legal access and justice for the poor. Therefore, criticism and advice should be given to the government in order to optimize legal assistance in order to achieve legal access and justice for all levels of society.
