As one of Indonesia’s leading legal media platforms, Hukumonline has played a significant role not only as a trusted source of legal information and education but also as a catalyst for building a more inclusive legal ecosystem. Through various programs and recognitions for law firms and pro bono advocates, Hukumonline continues to foster a culture of collaboration and shared responsibility among legal practitioners.
Alghiffari Aqsa, Managing Partner of AMAR Law Firm & Public Interest Law Office, sees this role as an opportunity to develop a strategic synergy between legal media, law firms, and humanitarian organizations. He hopes that Hukumonline can serve as a bridge connecting institutions such as Komnas Perempuan (National Commission on Violence Against Women), UNHCR, and various legal aid organizations, allowing for greater coordination and impact in pro bono initiatives that directly benefit society.
“We believe Hukumonline can take an even greater role by bridging the synergy between law firms and humanitarian institutions. In doing so, the pro bono movement will no longer be confined to internal legal practices but become part of a broader ecosystem of social justice,” Alghiffari stated.
Responding to this, Amrie Hakim, Chief Engagement & Media Officer (CMO) of Hukumonline, welcomed the idea. He agreed that building stronger collaboration between law firms and humanitarian organizations is essential to expanding access to justice across Indonesia.
“We hope Hukumonline can continue to bridge law firms with institutions in need of pro bono legal support,” Amrie said.
Alghiffari also expressed his appreciation for Hukumonline’s consistent commitment to recognizing lawyers and law firms that actively fulfill their social responsibilities through pro bono work. He emphasized that Hukumonline’s long-standing initiative demonstrates its genuine contribution to strengthening an equitable and sustainable legal ecosystem.
“I truly appreciate Hukumonline for continuously serving as a beacon for the pro bono movement. They have been consistent in monitoring, recognizing, and promoting the culture of pro bono within Indonesia’s legal community,” Alghiffari added.
As a law firm that integrates profit-oriented practice, pro bono services, and public interest advocacy within one entity, AMAR Law Firm firmly believes that a lawyer’s professionalism is not solely measured by paid services but also by their contribution to society.
For AMAR, Hukumonline’s effort to advance the pro bono culture represents an essential part of a sustainable legal ecosystem, where lawyers, legal media, and social institutions can work together to expand access to justice for all.
“We believe pro bono is not merely an act of charity, it is a professional obligation. Our synergy with Hukumonline is a concrete step toward ensuring that this movement continues to grow and make a lasting impact,” Alghiffari concluded.
