Abstract
If lawyers have an obligation to uphold the rule of law and maintain the integrity of the legal system then what is their role where they see laws that do not work or break people and reduce confidence and trust in the legal system? What are the ways in which new practices that are working can be supported rather than suffering the vagaries of pilot/trial short term or threatened cuts to funding which limit recruitment, stability and certainty and trust with promises having to be broken? What sorts of lawyers do we need for the future?
