Can you live without free justice?

The current government is ploughing ahead with their plans to cut the Legal Aid Budget which goes to the heart of the Criminal and Civil Justice System, as far as this firm is concerned there should be no price for access to justice.

Legal firms including ourselves are fighting back by boycotting new legal aid work, the purpose of the boycott is to ensure that public funded work is not dumbed down with losses of expert solicitors to private practice.

Whilst there is a strong argument to be had that those who can afford should pay for legal services, there is also a compelling argument to be had for free justice to all.

We will have to see what the future holds.
