Depending upon the territorial and subject matter jurisdiction of the case, an individual should approach the following appropriate authority:

Taluk Legal Services Committee which is in the premises of the Court in that Taluk; or

District Legal Services Authority which is in the premises of the District Court in the District Headquarters; or

The concerned State Legal Services Authority (for particular cases, panels of which are maintained at State level);

The High Court Legal Services Committee which is in the premises of the concerned High Court; or

The Supreme Court Legal Services Committee for cases before the Hon’ble Supreme Court.

Each District Legal Services Authority, High Court Legal Services Committee and State Legal Services Authority has a front office where an application can be moved.
One can even access and apply on the online portal of NALSAor the website of the State Legal Services Authorities.
