WHY THIS MATTERS – ACCESS TO JUSTICE BY THE NUMBERS

Global Justice Rankings

The U.S. ranks 124th out of 142 countries in absence of discrimination in civil justice.

The U.S. ranks 109th out of 142 countries in impartiality of the criminal justice system.

Legal Issues & Unresolved Cases

66% of Americans have experienced at least one legal issue in the past four years.

Only 49% of legal issues are fully resolved.

The Justice Gap – Unmet Legal Needs

92% of low-income Americans received little to no help for their civil legal problems in 2022.

Nearly 1 million low-income individuals who seek legal help for civil matters are turned away due to limited resources.

Many more people don’t even seek help because of financial and access barriers.
