Community legal centres ('CLCs') have a justifiable sense that they were once a radical alternative to conventional lawyering but, to the extent that was the case, it is no more. CLCs are now reformers within established legal structures. CLCs also have a strong sense of independence - independence is 'the very essence of what a CLCs is' - but to the extent that that too was the case, it is no longer, and the work of CLCs is now largely determined by the conditions of funding. Consistently reciting the mantra of independence, and taking comfort in the fading glow of a radical past, CLCs fail to reflect deeply on their contemporary identity and role
