As a result of the recent funding increase from the provincial government for this fiscal year, Legal Aid Alberta is increasing its financial eligibility guidelines effective December 4, 2014. The financial guidelines used to determine eligibility to receive representation through Legal Aid Alberta will increase by 18%, which will allow for the most vulnerable Albertans to have a lawyer appointed to represent them.
