Abstract
If human rights are to meaningfully alleviate poverty, we must factor in the day to day need for legal advice services. Even where there is no court or tribunal case involved, access to legal advice can be critical. It can save mistakes being made, help people understand their rights and responsibilities, and lead to early intervention and often prevention of problems or their escalation. With recent cuts to legal services, Health Justice Partnerships (HJP) are not only innovative ways to access to justice, but also have positive outcomes on the social determinants of health (SDH).
