Justice is Expensive

Whilst the scales of justice are supposed to be evenly weighted, by spending millions on expensive lawyers, and lobbying and corrupting politicians, wealthy actors can weigh those scales in their favour. 

This comes at the expense of marginalised communities who cannot afford to use the law in their interests, and in the interests of a sustainable future.

We draw on the huge levels of passion and expertise that lawyers across the world have for creating a just and sustainable future. We ‘even up the scales of justice’ by mobilising teams of the world’s best lawyers – to work for free, and for as long as it takes.

ILP is a complete gem - well networked and very efficient. 
 
We’ve got access to the highest calibre of legal support through ILP which we couldn’t have dreamed of getting otherwise as a small charity campaigning for better governance. 
 
It’s made a profound difference to our work and effectiveness.
