Access to civil justice: where to?
Where are we at? Where are we going? Let's take stock of access to civil justice.

Join us to hear from Professor Emily Taylor Poppe, a leading scholar with a new book on access to civil justice that draws together theoretical, empirical and interdisciplinary insights.
Alongside VLF’s Dr Hugh McDonald and Lynne Haultain, Emily will explore the consequences of unmet legal need and potential solutions including regulatory reform, legal technology, changes to court practices, and upstream policy interventions.
Don't miss this in-depth discussion looking at where access to civil justice is headed and needs to be.
