In particular, the conference devoted considerable time to discussing practical situations related to the Law on Marriage and Family commonly encountered at the grassroots level, such as: regulations on marriage, divorce, the right to request divorce settlement; obligations to care for, nurture, and educate children after divorce; and principles for resolving the division of common and separate property of spouses.

Regarding the content of legal aid, the presenters provided specific guidance to grassroots officials to ensure they understood: the categories of people eligible for legal aid (the poor, war veterans, children, etc.); the procedures, formalities, and required documents for requesting assistance.

Citizens and officials are also guided on how to submit applications for legal aid via postal service or online through the National Public Service Portal, ensuring transparent and convenient access to justice.
