Courtroom perspectives
Our courtroom perspectives series is designed as a space for direct dialogue with both legal aid and court practitioners. These sessions will allow us to gain a deeper understanding of location-specific issues and the day-to-day challenges faced by those delivering legal services in court.
While legal aid remains a key area of focus, particularly as we continue to advocate for meaningful reform, these meetings will also give voice to the wider concerns of court-based practitioners, whose insight is vital to shaping our policy and representative work.
Legal aid
Our responses to consultations in the area of legal aid.
