Unfortunately the evolutionary problem in a lawyer dominated and self regulated system of justice is not the vigorous defense of client's constitutional rights. We have permitted our judicial system to be converted into a giant lawyer business opportunity both financial and political. Equity and justice has been subordinated to the lawyer political and financial opportunity, largely separated from an entangled legal web called the judicial system-left for the American public to cope with. Over 200 major legal reform groups are working for legal justice reform nationwide. Until that reform becomes a reality, individual Americans must seize the offense and learn to represent themselves in their own legal affairs, even in court.
Self representation is a constitutional right.
Many generic procedures can be performed without the aid of a lawyer and at a great savings of time and money. No fault divorce, bankruptcy, will preparation, revocable trust, incorporation and many more legal procedures now are sold in kit form with complete step by step instructions and even software. You simply complete the forms and file them at the court of jurisdiction. There are hundreds of great books, manuals, audio tapes, reports and videos which assist in self help law. Take one of these products, a little courage and determination, a copy of the court rules and you can be the captain of your own legal ship.
