Abstract: Access to legal information and assistance remains a major challenge for many individuals due to high costs, lack of awareness, and geographical barriers. With the rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), chatbots have become an effective tool for improving access to information and services. This research paper presents the design, development, and evaluation of a Legal Aid Chatbot that provides preliminary legal guidance to users in a simple and accessible manner. The system uses NLP techniques, machine learning models, and a structured legal knowledge base to understand user queries and generate meaningful responses.
