A legal aid certificate is a document that says Legal Aid Ontario (LAO) covers the cost of a private lawyer to work on your legal problem for a certain number of hours.
To get a legal aid certificate, you must show that your income and assets are low enough, and that your legal issue is one that LAO covers.
