I suspect that the real heavy lifting
in enhancing access to justice is a matter of
procedural reform — specialized decision - making bodies with extremely simplified
procedural rules for specific civil law issues (something that actually already exists
in certain areas such as Landlord / Tenant, but could be further improved upon), wider permissions for over-the-counter motions, fewer unnecessary
court appearances, fewer procedurally - mandated
appearances (e.g., going from a Case Conference to a Settlement Conference to a Trial Management Conference, and possibly further, before you can get to a family law trial), and so on.
