Our Mission
Nishnawbe-Aski Legal Services Corporation (NALSC) delivers and coordinates a range of legal services and alternative processes that are culturally sensitive to, and enhance, our unique values, customs and traditions to promote healing and reintegration with First Nation communities.
Current legal services include:
- Legal aid applications;
- Summary advice and short legal services;
- Quasi-paralegal services;
- Victim Witness liaison services;
- Law reform;
- Public legal education;
- Alternative justice processes under criminal and family matters (Talking Together and Restorative Justice);
- Administrative assistance;
- Video jail applications.
Nishnawbe-Aski Legal Services Corporation is mainly funded through Legal Aid Ontario (LAO) and employs a part time Area Director. Legal Aid certificates are issued under LAO to anyone across the NAN territory who is eligible and requires a lawyer. NALSC’s greater understanding of the First Nations and their needs for legal services has improved the delivery of legal aid services to the members of NAN. The NALSC has established a panel of about 70 lawyers interested in providing legal services to members of Nishnawbe Aski Nation.
