The phrase "Justice must not only be done, but must also be seen to be done" is a famous legal aphorism that was laid down by Lord Hewart, the then Lord Chief Justice of England in the case of Rex v. Sussex Justices, 1 KB 256. The principle established by this case is that the mere appearance of bias is sufficient to overturn a judicial decision.
The phrase is often used to emphasise the importance of impartiality in the administration of justice. But the current justice system is broken, fundamentally flawed and institutionally biased. It favours those who have mastered and can manipulate the procedural systems of justice for unjust purposes.
This is particularly harmful to those acting as litigants in person. Facing legal proceedings within a broken justice system can be especially daunting if you're a lay person with limited means to hire professional legal representation.
In breach of your human rights to a fair trial, and contrary to both the criminal and civil procedural rules concerned with the 'equality of arms', you're often left feeling alone, desperate and broken with little confidence in the systems of justice as a whole.
Those working within the profession are also strained. Burning the midnight candle on legal reading and research along with the nuances of the legal landscape can get to the best of us.
But there is hope for change on the horizon.
