Our Organisation

Justice must be accessible to all

Attorneys 4 All (A4A) is a Sierra Leone-based not-for-profit national non-governmental organisation founded in 2025 and registered with the appropriate bodies in accordance with the laws of Sierra Leone. A4A works with lawyers and other specialists to promote access to justice, legal aid and empowerment, protect vulnerable populations, support advocacy and strengthen rule-of-law systems. We provide free legal aid, advice and representation to those who need it most, with particular attention to children, women, indigent people and other vulnerable persons.

A4A provides free, comprehensive legal aid services to women, children and less privileged people in communities, police stations, detention facilities, courts and other appropriate venues across Sierra Leone. Our work includes legal advice and representation, mediation and dispute resolution, employment-related support, rights awareness, protection of vulnerable people, advocacy, research and training. A4A also seeks to complement government efforts to improve access to justice and works within Sierra Leonean law and relevant international obligations.
