Justice42 strives for more accessible and user friendly justice. Justice42 (justice for two) is a system changer in dispute resolution in the Netherlands. Starting with divorce disputes, it delivers a better resolution service than the current lawyer centric process. Instead of the tournament model where two lawyers fight for their clients, theclients themselves are led through a guided mediation process that seeks the best solution for the couple and their children. This is a change in dispute resolution which addresses important societal problems and lowers costs. Furthermore, it makes procedures evidence based with measured results. Justice42 is an offspring from the HiiL (Hague Institute for Innovation of Law) foundation and they will work closely together to develop other types of disputes resolution in the future. This cooperation strategy is aligned with their vision: access to good & affordable justice for everyone. Justice42 is also the only legal company in the Netherlands certified by the RvR (Raad voor Rechtsbijstand or Board of Legal Aid).
