Questione giuridica chiave
Whether free legal counsel in the objection procedure was justified under Art. 37(4) LPGA.
Decisione estratta
Legal aid cannot be granted solely because the insured person has limited education or poor French; the decisive question is whether the case is objectively difficult enough that an attorney is apparently necessary.
Motivazione estratta
The cantonal court failed to assess the objective complexity of the facts and law and instead relied mainly on linguistic and personal difficulties. Those factors may justify assistance in general, but not necessarily the involvement of a lawyer.
