Legal aid legally in Law Number 16 of 2011 is a legal service free of charge to legal aid recipients. The thing that becomes the basis for the provision of legal assistance by the State is because the State is responsible for providing legal assistance to disadvantaged citizens as a form of access to justice and equality before the law. The state has a role in terms of establishing regulations as the legal basis for implementing legal assistance for disadvantaged citizens. But in reality, in the development of legal aid, there are several problems between legal aid providers (advocates) and the State as a guarantor of the constitutional right to the realization of justice and equality before the law for every Indonesian citizen, including the poor.

In addition, in terms of the legal culture of the community, the implementation of legal aid is not optimal due to the understanding of the community not to have anything to do with the law so that many cases that should receive legal assistance cannot be accompanied.

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.

Legal aid in Indonesia, particularly in terms of access to justice, legal aid provided by the state for people is still pivoted on positive law. Laws regulating legal aid in Indonesia remain revolving around the number of cases and budget absorption targets given to legal aid institutions that have been verified and accredited by the state for people/groups in need. Verification and Accreditation from the state with parameters written in the law inhibit those who need legal assistance if they are not categorized as the poor. The requirement of the poor to access legal aid implies that access to legal aid for everyone in conflict is far from justice. Access to legal aid is essential since the purpose of the law is justice. Besides, legal aid aims to provide justice for those who do not have law knowledge, in other words, blind to the law. Justice for all is the vein of legal aid which is inseparable from the right of legal aid for those in need. Legal aid can be administered by social institutions/legal aid agencies which should provide access to those who need legal assistance and those who are in dispute, be it poor or rich so that justice for all can be achieved. This research discusses the transcendental dimension of legal aid. This study used a descriptive research method intending to analyze legal aid from legal aid institutions viewed from the study of legal philosophy and legal aid with transcendental dimensions.

The debt collector itself is a third party, which has an agreement with the financing institution to make efforts to force the collection of debtor vehicles because it has not paid installments as agreed. The result of this paper is that under these circumstances there is another legal remedy, namely restructuring.

Legal aid in Indonesia, especially in terms of access to justice, legal aid provided by the state to the people still relies on positive law. The law governing legal aid in Indonesia still revolves around the number of cases and the budget absorption target given to legal aid institutions that have been verified and accredited by the state for people/groups in need. Verification and Accreditation from the state with the parameters written in the law prevent those who need legal assistance if they are not categorized as poor. The requirement of the poor to access legal aid implies that access to legal aid for everyone in conflict is far from fair. Access to legal aid is very important because the goal of law is justice. In addition, legal aid aims to provide justice for those who do not have legal knowledge, in other words, are blind to the law. Justice for all is the pulse of legal aid that cannot be separated from the right to legal aid for those in need.

This study discusses the transcendental dimensions of legal aid.

This research is a normative research. One of the fulfillment of human rights is justice in equalizing the position of every citizen before the law, as stated in Article 27 paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The right to equality before the law or what is commonly referred to as equality before the law is a principle that provides recognition and protection of human rights for every individual regardless of one's background. Therefore, it is true that Law Number 16 of 2011 concerning Legal Aid for People Who Are Less Capable to Guarantee Constitutional Rights of Citizens for Justice and Equality before the Law emerged. Legal aid is a legal service provided by advocates to the community seeking justice In the realm of criminal cases, the provision of legal assistance is described in Article 54 of the Criminal Procedure Code which explains that in the interests of defense, a suspect or defendant has the right to receive legal assistance from one or more legal advisers during the time and at each level of examination. The provision of legal assistance must be based on the principle of equality before the law as stated in the explanation of Law Number 8 of 1981 concerning Criminal Procedure Law. From the various analyzes that have been carried out, in the perspective of Islamic criminal law it can be concluded that the principle of equality before the law as described in Article 54 of the Criminal Procedure Code is equivalent to an order to provide legal aid which in Islamic criminal law is spelled out in Surah Al-Maidah verse 2 which states that as a fellow humans are ordered to help each other as a form of horizontal worship to fellow humans (habl minan-nas). In addition there are many more both in the Al Qur'an and the hadith of the prophet regarding the application of the principle of equality before the law.

Legal aid had the meaning of access to justice, which was the ability of people to seek and obtain restoration of their rights only through formal and informal justice court. The provision of legal aid providers in Law Number 16 of 2011 was a guarantee of the constitutional rights for the person or group of people which were categorized as poor people. Political law was something which underlies the basic policy of the promulgation of a regulation and the basic policy of the enactment of a certain regulation in the national legal system. The regulation and enforcement of sharia banking regulations in Indonesia from a political perspective of Islamic law was to be understood worthily, the existence of sharia banking regulations in Indonesia currently strengthened the theory of positivism of Islamic law and strengthened the paradigm of prophetic legal in the national legal system. According to the authors, the regulations contained in Law Number 16 of 2011 concerning legal aid, the most important thing was to provide legal assistance as a tool in law enforcement and justice. The legal assistance can be carried out in existence when the subject of legal aid, law enforcers and law institutions of sharia arbitration (Basyarnas) was functioning properly. Occasionally, the political view of Islamic law which had the main objective was the formation of justice products based on the Qur'an, Al-Hadith, Ijma and Qias in the concept and practice levels. Then the implementation of Law Number 16 of 2011 concerning legal assistance by Shari'ah arbitration in resolving Islamic banking disputes, with clear processes or mechanisms and agreements, arbitration agreement clauses before or after related to the agreement from the beginning was to provide convenience in resolving banking disputes or non banking disputes.
