IAALS, the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System at the University of Denver, announced today that it released its new Allied Legal Professionals landscape report, along with an accompanying online Knowledge Centre. This project seeks to help standardize a new tier of legal professionals nationally, with the goal of increasing the options for accessible and affordable legal help for the public.
The Allied Legal Professionals landscape report offers an initial summary of existing programs, presented across a framework that allows for comparison between and among the various state and international efforts. The accompanying online Knowledge Centre is designed to be an up-to-date resource with current state information for those considering how these programs can be achieved and improved upon.
