Did you know? There are more than 250 million adults, in more than 125 million households in the U.S. today.
Most of them have doctors and dentists, but very few have lawyers. Only a minority of the population can effectively access the legal system or afford important legal services.
As a result, needs go unmet.
According to studies (e.g., from the Legal Services Corporation), about 86% of civil legal problems reported by low-income Americans receive inadequate or no legal help.
Ordinary consumers face significant cost barriers.
High cost of legal services: Attorneys are expensive—often charging $300–$600/hour or more—making them out of reach for many people. Even moderate income people and small businesses frequently do not obtain legal services that would make them better off– whether for business transactions, employment matters, property matters, estate planning, family law matters, or addressing other legal issues.
There is no cost-effective resolution mechanism for most disputes.
The cost of litigation is too high for effectively resolving most disputes.
Racial, social, and geographical inequities are abound.
The lack of access to affordable legal services is especially pronounced for minority, marginalized, and lower income populations, as well as rural communities that tend to have fewer lawyers.
