Yet even if foreign aid funding could be maintained and expanded, the problem of ensuring proper representation before courts and tribunals of all those who have serious cases to present or defend, remain. This is why in a number of countries great attention is now being paid to the delivery of legal services. The adaptation of legal institutions and procedures to ensure that people can adequately put their cases themselves where they cannot get legal representation, is a common theme. It must march in parallel step with the expansion of legal aid. No court system should ever be so distant from the citizens which it serves that it appears an alien place.
Courts work best where litigants are represented by legal practitioners.
But where they cannot be so represented or prefer to represent themselves, it is necessary that courts and tribunals should bring justice to their cases. For any suggestions, pleased email to the webmaster of this site.
