Health economics of health justice partnerships: A rapid review of the economic returns to society of promoting access to legal advice
Background: Welfare legal problems and inadequate access to support services follow both the socioeconomic and the health inequalities gradients. Health Justice Partnership (HJP) is an international practitioner-led movement which brings together legal and healthcare professionals to address the root causes of ill health from negative social determinants. The aim of this paper was to identify the current evidence base for the cost-effectiveness o…
Social Welfare Advice and Health Among Young People: A scoping review
Social determinants of mental and physical health that influence young peoples’ trajectories into adulthood are often remediable through law. To address inequalities, including those exacerbated since the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a need to better understand young people’s need for and uptake of advice for social welfare legal problems. This scoping review aimed to review available evidence and identify gaps to inform further research. To ident…
Civil mediation: A measured approach
The mediation movement in Britain over the last 15 years has been enormously successful in establishing a firm place in policy debates on the administration of civil and family justice. Arguably, it has taken the lead and framed the content of debate outside the criminal sphere. The mediation movement has challenged the purpose of the civil and family justice systems, the value of public courts, the relevance of judicial determination to modern d…
Institutional Racism and Civil Justice
This article investigates the utility of the term 'institutional racism', using a study of the experiences of Black and Minority Ethnic [BME] people within the civil justice 'system' in England and Wales. The study is based on the results of the Legal Services Research Centre's Periodic Survey of Justiciable Problems, detailing 5,611 respondents' experiences of civil justice problems over a four-year period. The article concludes that although di…
Disability, social exclusion and the consequential experience of justiciable problems
In this article, we examine the situation of disabled people in England and Wales with regard to one specific aspect of social exclusion—experience of justiciable problems, and the potential effects such problems can have on their lives. Having defined ‘disability’, we examine how this fits within the wider dialogue on social exclusion issues. By analysing the results of the Legal Services Research Centre's (LSRC) periodic survey of justiciable p…
Lone Parents and Civil Law: Their Experience of Problems and Their Advice‐seeking Behaviour
The percentage of dependent children living in lone‐parent families has more than tripled in Britain over the last 30 years. Though there is much diversity within this lone‐parent population, there are common experiences and characteristics. Lone‐parent families tend to be headed by women, to be poor, on benefits and experience problems with ill health and disability. This paper examines lone parenthood in the context of the experience of justici…
Causes of Action: First Findings of the LSRC Periodic Survey
In this paper we report some of the first findings of the LSRC periodic survey of justiciable problems. We confirm the prevalence of justiciable problems amongst the general population. We identify important differences in the experiences of discrete socio–demographic populations, not only in terms of the number of problems faced, but also in terms of the perception of problems and reactions to them. We show that cost is not the principal barrier…
