The Legal Writers Collective

The Legal Writers Collective is group of law students who are passionate about access to justice. Their goal and mission is to put the law within reach, and essentially demystify the law. 

Legal Listening is working with The Legal Writers Collective to provide audio recordings of full decisions to accompany the case summary written by the collective. We both share missions of accessibility and making decisions within the reach of both law folk and the public.

Episodes made in conjunction with The Legal Writers Collective will appear as Bonus Episodes (#LWCCollab) in our Podcast Feed and also be accessible from the Collective’s site.

Provincial Court of British Columbia

The Provincial Court of British Columbia strives to serve the public by providing an accessible, fair, efficient, and innovative system of justice. The Court is committed to providing a forum for justice that:

·       is independent, impartial and consistent

·       assures equal access for all

·       maintains respect for the rule of law

·       enhances confidence in the administration of justice and

·       reflects core values of independence, fairness, integrity and excellence

The Court deals with criminal, family, small claims, traffic, ticket and bylaw cases.

Publishing eNews, a series of plain language articles about the Court’s work, judges’ activities, and a variety of topics related to the justice system, is one of the innovative things the Court is doing to increase access to justice.

LegalListening is thrilled to record and produce audio content for the BC Provincial Court’s eNews articles!

Class Action Clinic

The Class Action Clinic at Windsor Law is the first clinic of its kind in North America. Our focus is on class members – people who are part of a large civil lawsuit launched on their behalf by representative plaintiffs and class counsel. The Clinic is staffed with a team of law students, review counsel and a faculty director who provide a range of legal services, information, assistance with filing claims in settlement distribution processes, public education and outreach. Because we serve class members across Canada, the Clinic provides its services online, by telephone and by video conference, as well as in person for those in the Windsor–Essex community.

The Class Action Clinic has received start-up funding from The Law Foundation of Ontario.

We’re happy to be providing audio content of blog posts written by the clinic.
