Research on the access to justice needs of Manitobans is currently being conducted by Professor Gerard Kennedy of the University of Manitoba’s Faculty of Law and Manitoba’s Access to Justice Coordinator, Natasha Brown, with the support of the Law Society of Manitoba. Its purpose is to garner legal professionals’ views on the Legal Service Needs of Manitobans. Feedback from the profession will assist in the better tailoring of policy responses to facilitate access to justice in Manitoba.

Manitoba articling students, practising and non-practising lawyers can participate by completing this anonymous/confidential short 15 minute survey by Thursday, September 29. This research has been approved by the Research Ethics Board at the University of Manitoba, Fort Garry campus. To learn more please see the consent form for this research study.
