Judges, lawyers, law school professors and nonprofit organizers gathered Monday to strategize on ways to improve access to justice for Georgians living in areas with few, if any, lawyers and legal resources.

But as the 45-minute discussion revealed, being able to ensure access to justice for all won’t come without challenges.
