Executive Summary
2
Of the 800 respondents, 58% had used the Internet to search for legal help Costs and confusion about the legal system were by far the biggest access hurdles Certain groups in particular perceived themselves as being highly susceptible to these legal
barriers:1. Ohioans with a family income of $30k/year or lower2. Urban residents 3. Ohioans with less than a bachelor’s degree
Support for a legal access portal was strong (68%) Target strategies to support portal success/adoption:
Directness and simplicity – eliminating “the use of legal mumbo jumbo.” Cost-savings – (ex. 35% could not afford any limited scope representation) giving users
valuable, contextualized information Security protection – moderate hesitancy existed for portal concepts, and respondents
desired to see a reputable, trustworthy website

Costs were overwhelmingly cited as the most common legal challenge
8
“I believe the legal system is a money game. If you have money, you can buy your way out of legal issues. If you don’t, you suffer.”
“The legal system favors large corporations who can afford expensive lawyers.”
“When looking for legal help, you have to pay for something even for simple questions answered.”
“Court fees are outrageous.”
“We filed bankruptcy. The only challenge we really had was finding the money to pay for the attorney. Especially since we were broke.”
“You have to pay exorbitant amounts of money, and even getting to be heard in court takes longer sometimes than just riding out the problem naturally.”
“Trying to find a lawyer that would not charge hour fees just to find out they could not help.”

“It would help my family to have a better understanding of the legal system and how the court works.”
“The fancy terminology used
on documents are a little
confusing or difficult to
understand.”

Confusion on the legal system’s complexity was widespread
12
“Dealing with the confusing rules of the legal system and courts cause significant, often debilitating, anxiety.”
“I couldn't understand the legal stuff on the website, ended up going to a lawyer through my husbands union.”
“I don’t understand legal talk.”
“It was hard to understand how to plead when I received my driving ticket. It confused me why I had to plead the way I did to make the charges and fee less.”
“Knowing how to even start! Afraid of my lack of knowledge. To trust myself to make any choices or decisions needed to move forward in what to do next…”
“The number one problem is not understanding it. There are a lot of questions, but when reading things or trying to research things I do not understand them.”
“The way they speak isn't even English! The whole system seems to be designed to confuse lay people.”

“Many people can’t afford a lawyer to take their entire case. What is the most that you would pay to talk to a lawyer for
help only about how to represent yourself?”“[It’s a challenge] to
find someone knowledgeable
enough to answer a single obscure legal
question, but nothing that merits a
retainer or a $300 fee.”

Clear consensus: an effective portal would be a major step in reducing these access gaps

“Such a website, especially if for a nominal fee, [where] we could discuss issues with a lawyer, would be a benefit to society. I'm for it.”
“When getting divorced, I couldn't afford an attorney so I tried to use a kit found at Office Max. Several years after a felony conviction, I cannot find information or assistance to have my personal record expunged.”
“It can be ambiguous and hard for the individual to understand. It seems like the law system is not made for the small person.”
“They use too many big words + it's rigged against us.”
“I want a website that is written by lawyers…and verified that information is 100% correct. I've seen too much contradictory information online. Also, use simpler language and shorter explanations. Hard to understand and so overwhelming.”
“Because of my low income, and never having used a lawyer, I didn't know what to expect when going before the court.”
“The biggest issue aside from money was the lack of knowledge of my own rights. I have had…pro bono attorneys who weren’t helpful in showing me my rights and how to address things in a more informed manner.”

“If the website referred you to a lawyer, would you trust the referral?”Answer: “I don’t know/ Not sure (optional- please explain why)”
“Because most referrals usually are because the lawyer has given them incentive to refer them.”
“Depends on the source of the website and its funding.”
“I would probably look into this person's ratings etc. first if available.”
“I would want to know how the website goes about making its decisions on referrals.”
“If just one I would suspect this was an ad but if several in area I would consider”
“It depends on the pool from which they chose and transparency in selection process of lawyers/offices to refer to.”
“Want to make sure the person is not biased. Has a good work reputation.”
“Only if the lawyer had been previously vetted and the website only had lawyers who they trusted.”
