Potential legal issues occur in the normal activities of day-to-day lives. However, the frequency of encountering such issues and that of seeking professional opinion to solve it are highly imbalanced due to the lack of entry point and low legal capability of people. This thesis introduces LawConnect as a solution to bridge the gap between the underserved ethnic minority (EM) community and the justice system in Hong Kong. It is a mobile application to educate users on legal entitlements and legal assistance options, with an e-form generator for efficient legal aid application of lay persons. Comparing to the currently flawed practice, LawConnect enables self-empowerment on legal matters and promotes equal justice within reach. Created to serve the EM community, the relevant design and technical development, along with the business potential of the platform are investigated in the thesis.
