Paths to Justice: The Justice Crisis in the United States

On November 3, as part of our Paths to Justice Summit Series, IAALS hosted a webinar, "The Justice Crisis in the United States," the first of two webinars on paths to access in the United States. 

In September, IAALS and HiiL launched the results of their nationwide study on access to justice in the United States. The results of the survey provide a clear picture regarding the landscape of legal problems in the United States. The study also provides additional insights into the justice crisis in America and the need for a profound change in the access to justice paradigm—from how the United States thinks about the scope of the crisis to how it is addressed. During our launch webinar, we provided a brief snapshot of the key data points, including a view of how Americans across a broad range of socio-demographic groups experience and resolve their legal problems. In this webinar, the first of two on the justice crisis in the United States, members of the IAALS and HiiL project team presented a deeper dive into the key findings of this study.

This panel featured Logan Cornett (Director of Research, IAALS), Dr. Martin Gramatikov (Director Measuring Justice, HiiL), and Brittany Kauffman (Senior Director, IAALS).
