Legal Defense Fund

A Legal Defense Fund is a financial resource set up to help cover legal expenses for individuals or groups involved in legal battles, often related to civil rights or social justice. These funds collect donations from the public or supporters to pay for attorney fees, court costs, and related expenses. The goal is to ensure that those in need can access legal representation, especially when facing significant challenges, such as discrimination or wrongful persecution. Legal Defense Funds play a vital role in promoting fairness and justice within the legal system.
