Two years ago the ABA Commission on the Future of Legal Services set out to improve the delivery of, and access to, legal services in the United States. This past August the commission issued its comprehensive report, dedicated “to the estimated 80 percent of the poor, and those of moderate means, without meaningful access to our justice system.”
In its nearly 100 pages of findings and recommendations, the commission reviews traditional and evolving delivery models for legal services, scrutinizes the strengths and weaknesses of the profession and justice system that have an impact on the delivery of legal services, and presents recommendations for ensuring that the next generation of legal services meets the public’s needs more effectively. The report deserves the attention of every member of the bar, the judiciary, and the legislature.
