The relationship between employers and employees is an unequal relationship by
nature, so it would be up to the State to guarantee the existence of public policies
capable of alleviating the effects of this inequality. Thus, it is up to the Labor Court to
seek a balance between the protection of workers and the rights of employers, despite
this, it is observed that the practice of courts does not always reflect the idea of
horizontal treatment between the parties, especially with regard to the institute of free
legal aid. Thus, the general objective of this research is to investigate the effectiveness
of the institute of free legal aid as a mechanism for accessing justice, based on the
proof of the declaration of hyposufficiency. Therefore, the study developed is
fundamentally bibliographical, as only books, scientific articles and documents
necessary for the discussion of the topic were used to develop the proposed
reflections. It was concluded that the use of mechanisms to prove hyposufficiency in
addition to self-declaration of poverty does not constitute an obstacle to jurisdictional
provision, on the contrary, it is a form of guarantee that the provision will be used
reliably, in compliance with the principles and the objectives of the administration of
justice in Brazil.
