Now, a lot of people will be unaware that currently, under the Lawyers and Conveyancers Act, an employed lawyer is technically deemed guilty of misconduct if the lawyer does legal work outside their employment or for a community law centre, so this seeks to improve access to justice by allowing that to happen. What it will mean is more lawyers can do more pro bono work outside their employment and expand outreach to the justice system and greatly increase accessibility without the fear that their actions will be regarded as misconduct.
