9 Access to Justice and Online Legal Services

In 2000, in my book Transforming the Law, I predicted that, within five years, more people in the UK would have access to the Internet than access to justice. Unfortunately, I have been proven correct. Today, as I explain shortly, only 5 per cent of British people are effectively excluded from the Internet, whereas the majority of citizens in England and Wales are unable to afford most of the services of lawyers and of the courts. The good news, as I have for long claimed, is that information technology will be pivotal in overcoming many of the growing problems of access to justice. My aim in this chapter is to show how this might come to pass.
