Abstract

This paper reports on the formation of a community-based Access to Justice coalition in New Brunswick and suggests that community involvement is crucial to reforming New Brunswick’s justice institutions with a view to bringing about a civic-oriented, responsive and accessible justice system in the province. Particularly, the boundaries of the legal professional monopoly have to be re-conceived from an access to justice perspective.

Keywords: access to justice, civil justice reform
