Client Gateway, an alternate way for lawyers to help new and existing clients apply for coverage from Legal Aid Alberta, is about to expand to include all areas of law LAA covers.
At present, Client Gateway is only in use by criminal lawyers for their clients. But starting in June, lawyers practicing family, child welfare, child representation and immigration law will be able to help clients apply for coverage through the Client Gateway.
Training will be provided following launch – stay tuned.
The following LAA systems will be unavailable during the times indicated below on Thursday, May 8, as we prepare for the June expansion:
- Client Gateway: 12 p.m. to 12 midnight
- DC Portal: 3:30 p.m. to 12 midnight
- Lawyer Portal: 5 p.m. to 12 midnight
