- The glaring lack of knowledge and understanding of the law by Africans in general and Malians in particular (A national survey conducted in 2018 revealed that several Malians consider that they do not take action when faced with a legal problem due to a lack of knowledge of the formal legal system);
- Limited access to legal services for entire communities (in Mali, for example, there are only 326 lawyers and 480 magistrates for a population of 19, 594,221 inhabitants);
- Limited access by entire communities to the few existing courts (there are only 58 first instance courts in 57 Districts in Mali); and
- The very high number of unresolved legal problems each year (there are nearly 740,000 unresolved problems each year in Mali, for example).
Mali is a vast and landlocked country. For example, the distance between Timbuktu in the north and Bamako, the capital, is more than 1000 km. When we add to this distance the almost non-existence of practicable roads, the growing insecurity, and the concentration of lawyers in the capital, we quickly realize that people who have a legal problem and who want to assert their rights have almost only one way to do so: to obtain legal aid online.
Whether by phone or chat (SMS, Facebook, WhatsApp) or through email, our legal advisors are available to provide you with the support you need and that is tailored to your situation.
By opting for online legal assistance, Droit Direct users receive considerable benefits:
1. Time-saving: our legal advisors are available 7 days a week to listen to users and answer all their legal issues. So, no matter what the day or time, all they have to do is call or open a chat via SMS, Facebook, WhatsApp or send an e-mail to find the solution to their legal problem.
2. Saving money: By opting for online consultation, users save a lot of money. First of all, they no longer need to travel to seek legal assistance. A simple phone call or text message, Facebook, WhatsApp or an e-mail, allows them to quickly access accurate and relevant legal information at a cost that is accessible to everyone. Secondly, the costs of an online legal consultation are significantly lower than those of a traditional legal consultation.
3. Removing borders: Whether the user is in Gao or Mopti, Kayes or Segou, borders are no longer an obstacle to obtaining legal aid in Mali. No matter where users are in the country, our legal advisors are available to them by phone and by a simple chat (SMS, Facebook, WhatsApp) or by e-mail. The same services are available for Malians in the diaspora and foreigners: from Paris to Washington DC via Accra and New Delhi, legal professionals assist everyone on all legal questions they may have.
What are our assets?
