I have a legal concern - can the Court help?
The Constitutional Court, as a court of law, cannot offer legal assistance or advice. If you cannot afford a lawyer, you should contact one of the many justice centres and law clinics around the country for advice. Here are links to organisations that may be able to help.
How can the Constitutional Court help me protect my rights?
The Constitutional Court is the ultimate defender of the human rights laid down in the Bill of Rights. But an aggrieved person should almost always exhaust other options before trying to approach the Constitutional Court. If you wish to use the law to assert your rights you will generally need to begin in the High Court. For more see the role of the Constitutional Court.
How else can I make sure my rights are respected?
A number of bodies - many of them the creations of Chapter 9 of the Constitution - can help you assert your fundamental rights. These offer a useful place to begin.
