Reading: My brother-in-law is hearing impaired and his wife has a physical disability. He’s facing a serious charge, and the court-appointed lawyer hasn’t prepared any arguments. He’s trying to prepare his own defense, but it’s incredibly challenging without professional help. The deadline for submitting arguments is approaching. How can we ensure a fair trial and prevent a miscarriage of justice, not just for him but for families and society at large? He can’t afford a private lawyer due to his disability.

Your brother-in-law has the right to legal representation, and the court is obligated to provide him with a competent lawyer even if he can’t afford one. You can file a complaint with the Bar Council of India or the concerned court if the appointed lawyer is not fulfilling their duty. The court should also consider their disabilities when determining the appropriate level of support and accommodations during the trial.
