In this part I will explain what advice bureau is and then tell the different ways a case can be funded and the advice and assistant available to people. Society wants all people to follow the law accordingly so it means society should not only be equally bound by, but equally served by the legal system. Even though it is open to everybody some people were unable to apply for the legal help because they can’t afford to enforce the legal right so couldn’t access the legal system. The citizens’ advice bureau can be accessed by the public and they don’t have to pay. This helps people who require assistance to enforce their rights. This is because some people can’t really afford to get legal help so this makes it easier for them to get access to justice. …show more content…
One way is to pay a solicitor or barrister privately even though, this would be considerably expansive.

It is unfortunate that accidents that result in injuries are a part of life. Further more it is also unfortunate that often the party responsible for said accident do not feel compelled to offer compensation to the party affected. However in spite of this, there is still hope for the injured party thanks to personal injury lawyers. They are tasked with representing their clients who suffered from these events while making sure that their clients receive the compensation that they deserve.

The procedure is quick, simpler and cheaper than the full county court process, which is helpful to both litigants and the over worked court system. It gives individuals and small businesses a useful lever against creditors or for consumer complaints. Without it, threats to sue over small amounts would b ignored on the basis that going to court would cost more than the value of the debt or compensation claimed. Public confidence is also increased, by proving that the legal system is not only accessible to the rich and powerful.

The relationship between the Armenian client and the legal professional is a complex one. It is full of issues that go beyond giving them legal advice or filing a law suit on their behalf, it includes issues relating to a person’s cultural context. In fact, generally the actual legal issues sometimes become secondary, or at least not as central in the person’s priorities. At the beginning, such a relationship can cause great frustration and waste of time in the legal professional’s attempt to provide the appropriate service. Eventually, these communication issues can cause delays in providing professional service, and lead to extra unnecessary legal expenses. The correct understanding of a client’s cultural situation by the legal professional can lead to a higher quality of service, and lower costs. As difficult and complicated as this situation may sound, it is still not impossible. In fact, most experienced professionals learn over the years to relate to the Armenian culture.

First, a helpdesk should be defined in the sense of a direction that communicates what users should be looking for, such as a particular malfunction or corruption to a user PC rather than the traditional error or search of a particular function. In this mission the following objectives from (Bulchand-Gidumal, 2009) summarize the help desk:
