All too often our legal system feels like it only works for people who already have power and privilege, who know how to use the courts to enforce their will and defend their interests.
Jolyon Maugham QC founded The Good Law Project with the belief that the law can also put power in the hands of ordinary people. It has brought a series of landmark cases against a dishonest and increasingly autocratic government and won widespread acclaim in successfully reversing the Prime Minister's unlawful suspension of Parliament. It is now the largest legal campaign group on the UK and has won some of the most important constitutional cases in recent memory. In this empowering book, Jolyon Maugham reveals what has driven his inspiration and purpose, and offers a bold new vision for how the law can work better for all of us in the fight against injustice.
