- Summary:
-
This inquiry investigated the costs of accessing justice services and securing legal representation in Australia, and the impact of these costs on access to - and quality of - justice. The inquiry was prompted in large part by concerns that the civil justice system is too slow, too expensive, too complicated, and too adversarial. This report presents the findings and recommendations of the inquiry, following on from an issues paper and a draft report.
