Order Description

“Aссеss to legal advice and representation is of course a fundamental ingredient of the rule of law, and the rule of law together with democracу is one of the two principal columns on which a civilised society is based. It is simply wrong, and fundamentally wrong at that, if ordinary citizens and businesses are unable to obtain competent legal advice as their legal rights and obligations, and competent legal representation to enforce and protect those rights and test those obligations in court” Per Lord Neuberger Access to Justice Speech to the Australian Bar Association, on 3rd July 2017 at para 7.
