Service intelligence
Know before you go
Booking lead time
Email the pro-bono legal-aid address as early as safely possible. Mark an arrest, summons or imminent hearing as urgent; ordinary rights questions may need more response time.
Best time
Contact during Egyptian weekday hours, but do not wait for business hours if detention or immediate legal danger is involved. A trusted person can also make first contact when the affected person cannot.
Who it suits
LGBTQ+ Egyptians and others facing morality, debauchery, cybercrime or identity-related prosecution, plus lawyers, researchers and advocates working on the same legal environment.
What to prepare
Write a short timeline and preserve relevant notices or messages securely. Do not forward explicit images, full dating-app histories or unnecessary identity documents in the first email; ask counsel what evidence is needed.
Provider inclusion
The institute's legal aid and research are explicitly focused on LGBTQ+ rights in Egypt. The service understands the interaction between online evidence, police practice and morality-law prosecutions.
