Did you know that 32% of adults in England and Wales have low legal confidence? That’s nearly one in three people who feel unprepared and unsure about their ability to achieve a fair outcome when faced with a legal issue.
When legal confidence is low, people often avoid getting the help they need. In fact, 48% of those with low legal confidence choose not to seek professional legal assistance at all. This leads to unresolved disputes, financial losses, and increased stress – outcomes that could have been avoided with the right support.
What is Legal Confidence and Why Does it Matter?
Legal confidence refers to how capable and empowered you feel to handle a legal problem and achieve a fair resolution. It influences key behaviours, such as:
Seeking professional help: When people lack confidence, they’re more likely to delay or avoid consultations altogether.
Understanding legal processes: Low confidence often means not understanding your rights, responsibilities, or the steps needed to resolve an issue.
Achieving fair outcomes: If you don’t seek help or go into consultations unprepared, the likelihood of a positive resolution decreases.
In short, low legal confidence becomes a barrier to justice.
