Based on the results of the research, the arrangements for providing structural legal aid by the Medan legal aid agency are Law No.16 of 2011 concerning legal aid and Government Regulation No. 42 of 2013 as the implementing regulation, and as for internal assistance, namely the standard operating procedures of the legal aid agency itself and other supporting laws. Field legal aid agencies resolve criminal cases in litigation and non-litigation terms. Litigation resolution is the handling of cases through court channels, namely acting as a companion, both in the police, prosecutors, and in court. Meanwhile, non-litigation settlement is the handling of cases outside the court route, namely by conducting legal counseling, legal consultation, mediation, and negotiations, which can be carried out by lawyers, paralegals, lecturers, and law faculty students who have met the requirements that have been set.
