ILAG Conference Paper - Class and Advice Seeking - Comparative InsightsRebecca Sandefur and Jeanne CharnOur purpose in this paper is to identify aspects of justice institutions that might be manipulated to reduce socioeconomic inequality in access to justice. We do this through a two-country comparative case study of socioeconomic differences in public experience with civil justice troubles involving money and housing. We focus on whether individuals take any action to try to resolve problems and whence they seek advice about how to resolve them. Given available data, our conclusions are necessarily speculative. We find evidence that some institutional arrangements are better than others at reducing class inequalities in people's propensity to seek advice and take action to resolve civil justice problems. We also find that some institutional arrangements that appear effective at equalizing action-taking and advice-seeking still appear to channel different groups to different kinds of providers.3rd Mar 2009USA, Wellington 2009, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Advice and assistance

ILAG Conference Paper - Improving Quality Costs A Lot Of Money; Not Improving Quality Costs A FortuneGuido SchakenraadThis article will discuss the use and necessity of a strong quality policy for lawyers. First of all, why and for whom. Subsequently the question of what is covered by quality or rather integral quality? For whom is this important and what are quality improvement methods? And why too little is happening within this scope and why innovation fails to materialise. 2nd Apr 2009The Netherlands, Wellington 2009, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Quality Assurance

ILAG Conference Paper - Sustainable Legal Aid and Access to Justice: A Supply Chain ApproachMaurits BarendrechtMany countries struggle to maintain an affordable and sustainable legal aid system. This paper reports about an interactive consultation process that was organized to develop proposals for increasing access to justice and at the same time limiting costs for governments, as well as for users of the legal system. During the process, some strategies were identified that are unlikely to be effective in increasing access to justice and limiting costs. The more promising strategies tend to focus on improving the entire supply chain of fair solutions for legal needs, from legal advice, to settlement negotiations, and court interventions. These strategies can indeed lead to savings on the legal aid budget and improve access to justice at the same time. However, the ensuing policies are not easy to implement, because they require a form of coordination that is novel for the legal sector.2nd Apr 2009Wellington 2009, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations

ILAG Conference Paper - The “ clients” of the publicly funded lawyerMarc Mason and Avrom SherrThis paper considers concepts of the “client” from the viewpoint of the lawyers working on publicly funded cases in England and Wales. It uses the lens of competence and quality assessment of legal work in the context of peer review, and suggests a picture of the way clients are currently perceived and treated by their publicly funded lawyers.2nd Apr 2009England and Wales, Wellington 2009, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Economics of legal aid

ILAG Conference Paper - Towards Integrated Legal Service Delivery Mary Anne NooneInternational research has revealed links between legal and health needs, particularly for people with chronic illness and disability and the prevalence of non-legal services as the first port of call for assistance with legal problems. These are sound reasons to integrate legal, health and welfare services. However, even though the co-ordination and collocation of legal and non-legal services (particularly for disadvantaged communities) seems a straightforward solution to these research findings, integrating services across sectors, government departments, organisational and professional boundaries is not a simple task. In the context of this research and various Australian policy responses, I explore the desired features of an integrated approach in legal, health and welfare service delivery. I draw on the experience of the West Heidelberg Community Legal Service (WHCLS) which is collocated with Banyule Community Health (BCH) and some other recent innovative legal service delivery options. In conclusion, the current challenges facing those agencies wishing to enter into arrangements to provide integrated legal, health and welfare services are identified.2nd Apr 2009Wellington 2009, Australia, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Delivery mechanisms

ILAG Conference Paper 2001 - Quality of Legal Services in Australian Family Law Rosemary Hunter & Ann GenoveseThe Justice Research Centre recently completed a study that compared the services received by legally-aided and self-funded clients in family law.2 One aspect of this study was to examine the differences, if any, of the quality of services received by self-funding clients, legally aided clients of private solicitors, and clients of legal aid commissions in four Australian states. This paper examines the approach and outcomes of this component of the research.13th Jun 2001Australia, Melbourne 2001, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Historical development of legal aid, Quality Assurance

ILAG Conference Paper 2003 - Needs Assessment and Community Legal Services in England and WalesPascoe PleasanceThis paper provides an overview of recent developments in needs assessment in England and Wales. It describes the origins of the Legal Services Commission, the Community Legal Service and Community Legal Service Partnerships, and how changes to the civil legal aid system in England and Wales reflect a new emphasis on targeting legal aid funds on the basis of ‘need’. It argues that effective targeting within a context of limited resources requires proper knowledge of populations vulnerable to the experience of ‘justiciable’ problems, the impact of problems, the strategies that are used to deal with problems, and the effectiveness of different strategies. It describes the methods that are being used by the Legal Services Commission to assess ‘need’ and sets out some key findings of the first LSRC Periodic Survey of Justiciable Problems, which illustrate how the legal aid system in England and Wales might evolve to best meet government objectives.19th Jun 2003England and Wales, Harvard 2003, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Community Legal Services, Needs assessment
ILAG Conference Paper 2003 - Online Legal Services for Low and Moderate Income Clients: Private Market Solutions to Meeting Legal Needs Richard S. GranatModerate and middle-income families are seeking alternatives to using lawyers to solve their legal problems, from self-help software to independent paralegals to web-based legal information services. Solos and small law firms will continue to lose market share to these alternative solutions unless they can learn to re-engineer their legal service offerings to respond to the realities of serving this market sector. The American Bar Association has recently launched an effort to promulgate a model definition of the practice of law. The impact of this effort will make it more difficult for services programs to provide access to the legal system using the Internet and more difficult for law firms to use technology to deliver innovative legal services. More promising, another ABA Commission has recently initiated efforts to help lawyers serve the “latent market for legal services.” New approaches are being developed and funded by the Legal Services Corporation, which may have more relevance for private practitioners serving moderate-income families than legal service attorneys serving the low-income community. The Internet provides new opportunities for collaboration between the legal services community and solos and small law firms that serve the near poor, moderate income, and middle-income individuals and families. Both communities could learn from each other to the benefit of both.19th Dec 2003USA, Harvard 2003, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Historical development of legal aid, Delivery mechanisms

ILAG Conference Paper 2003 - Technology, the Courts and Self-represented Litigants Ronald W. StaudtThe information revolution is slowly beginning to change the justice system. Lawyers in large firms and solo practices use computers, word processing, email and the common tools of modern information technology. The justice institution most reluctant to adopt modern information tools has been the court system itself. Yet even the courts are beginning to build and install electronic data systems to manage cases and court files.

ILAG Conference Paper 2003 - The Nature and Extent of Unmet Need for Criminal Legal Aid in Canada Ab CurrieLegal aid is the primary institution for providing access to criminal justice to the poor. To a significant degree the integrity of the criminal justice system depends on the availability of publicly funded legal aid for the poor. The importance of criminal legal aid lies in the nature of the criminal justice system. The Canadian criminal justice system, like other Common Law countries, is adversarial in nature. In one view, the effective functioning of an adversarial criminal justice process depends on having a trained advocate on each side, one representing the Crown that lays the charge and the other representing the accused person. If this is not the case the system may not function well1. Some of the lawyers interviewed in the research discussed below identified several negative consequences that may occur when people accused of criminal offences appeared un-represented in court.19th Jun 2003Canada, Harvard 2003, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Needs assessment

ILAG Conference Paper 2007 - Lawyers' Pro Bono Service and American-Style Civil Legal AssistanceRebecca SandefurLawyers are often criticized for stinting on their responsibilities for public service; nevertheless, their uncompensated provision of legal services to poor people, or pro bono work, provides a substantial part of available civil legal assistance in the United States. Cross-sectional analysis of data from the late 1990s reveals that reliance on pro bono may render assistance vulnerable to market pressures in ways both obvious and subtle. In states where the legal profession takes in more receipts per lawyer, larger proportions of the profession provide uncompensated service to the poor. In states where the profession feels its work jurisdiction is under threat from unauthorized practice by other occupations, larger proportions of the profession participate in pro bono work than in states where there is no concern about unauthorized practice. As federally subsidized legal assistance shrinks in both scope and scale, growing reliance on pro bono leaves American-style civil legal assistance increasingly vulnerable to market forces.7th Jun 2007USA, Antwerpen 2007, ILAG Conference Papers and Presentations, Civil legal aid
