Established in 1957 by a group of leading jurists, JUSTICE is an all-party law reform
and human rights organisation working to strengthen the justice system –
administrative, civil, and criminal – in the United Kingdom. We are a membership
organisation, composed largely of legal professionals, ranging from law students to
the senior judiciary.
Our vision is of fair, accessible, and efficient legal processes, in which the
individual’s rights are protected, and which reflect the country’s international
reputation for upholding and promoting the rule of law. To this end:
• We carry out research and analysis to generate, develop and evaluate ideas for
law reform, drawing on the experience and insights of our members.
• We intervene in superior domestic and international courts, sharing our legal
research, analysis and arguments to promote strong and effective judgments.
• We promote a better understanding of the fair administration of justice among
political decision-makers and public servants.
• We bring people together to discuss critical issues relating to the justice system,
and to provide a thoughtful legal framework to inform policy debate.
