Abstract
The purpose of this report is to further understanding about the social consequences arising from both unresolved legal problems and the process of attempting to resolve such problems through the courts. Previous research has shown that a significant portion of the population, in Canada and internationally, regularly experience problems that are both difficult to resolve and have legal implications. Furthermore, it is suggested that socially disadvantaged groups are more likely to experience serious problems, and less likely to successfully resolve them.
