The National, the Canadian Bar Association’s magazine has recognized http://www.firedwithoutcause.com:
By automating and streamlining necessary but straightforward and/or repetitive tasks, sites such as … FiredWithoutCause can offer legal services more quickly and cheaply than the average law firm associate, or even the average legal secretary. And by lowering or outright eliminating the bar on legal fees, they can tap into … the average consumer or small business owner who would never consult a lawyer because they find lawyers too expensive. (S. Goldberg, “The new competition”, National, December 2009, pp. 8-9)
At Paradigm Shift Solutions, we believe that improving access to justice in Canada will not improve by asking lawyers to increase pro bono or volunteer work or working for less. We can improve access to justice by creating new business models that empower Canadians with legal information and provide proportionately priced services.
