Bail

Free legal help when someone needs bail

If a person is in custody and the family cannot pay a lawyer for the bail hearing, this is the page that explains what we can look at.

When this applies

Bail is often urgent. A hearing date moves whether or not the family has found money for counsel. People in this position usually need someone to read the FIR, the custody papers, and the last order, then to say whether a bail application can be moved.

Cause & Case reads bail matters for people who cannot pay a private advocate, in Delhi NCR and Madhya Pradesh. First-time and vulnerable accused are the cases we are built for. We do not promise a result, and we do not take every bail brief that arrives.

What to have ready

If you apply, tell us who is in custody, which court or police station is involved, and the next date if you know it. FIR copies, remand orders, and earlier bail orders help after we ask for them. Do not send those papers on a public page. The application gives you a private upload link.

A relative can apply when the person in custody cannot. Give a phone number and email where we can reach you.

What we will not pretend

We cannot guarantee bail. We cannot appear tomorrow in a court we do not cover. If the desk declines the matter, that decision is final for this application. You can still approach a legal services authority or private counsel.

Common questions

Can a family member apply for bail help?
Yes. Write the application in the name of the person who needs representation, and use a phone number the family can answer. Say clearly who is in custody.
If I apply today, will a lawyer attend the next hearing?
Only if we accept the case and there is time to prepare. Submitting the form does not place an advocate on record.
