Featuring contributions by leading Canadian and international scholars, practitioners, and members of the judiciary, this multidisciplinary collection draws on scholarship in the fields of law, social science, and public policy. There is a particular emphasis on family law, consumer law, and employment law, as these are the areas where research has indicated that unmet legal needs are highest.
Middle Income Access to Justice presents a variety of innovative solutions, from dispute resolution process reforms to the development of non-lawyer forms of assistance and new methods for funding legal expenses. In doing so, it lays the foundation for the development of a much-needed new delivery model to provide early intervention for legal services.
Michael J. Trebilcock is a university professor emeritus of law and economics at the University of Toronto. Anthony Duggan holds the Honourable Frank H. Iacobucci Chair in the Faculty of Law at the University of Toronto. Lorne Sossin is Dean of Osgoode Hall Law School at York University.
