In the mode of a private family, living under the same roof under the eye of a common father or mother, the most intricate disputes
involve little complication: the weakest member who has emerged imbecillity of infancy once outgrown,
the weakest member is not unable to advocate his own cause:
to advocate bring to view what is necessary to support prove his claim just if
it be just, or to defend himself against loss, if trouble or punishment if undue.
In the case of many of those disputes Among the opposite pretensions disputes which sometimes
arise between family and family one household and another are some with every new
and then start up such as are in which the pretensions of the
contending parties, how sincere soever on one or both sides, will
on one or both sides be too intricate to be placed in their proper
light without extraneous assistance. If assistance for this purpose,
and that adequate to the purpose be obtainable without
remuneration – if the domestic or other connections of the litigant
afford him supply him with a patron an imposed patron advocate able and willing who to the instructor
adds the power and able of placing the claim in its proper light, it isso much
the better will: but if not, either the requisite the labour and skill necessary must be
paid for, or injustice must take the place of justice. To
acquire this a skill of this sort adequate to the indiscriminate expences
of all persons by whom the effectual demand for it may
come to be presented, we will under the most ample and perfect
system of procedure imaginable require previous mental preparation
will require the previous employment of as inconsiderable a portion
if human a man's . His
2d feature additament appendage to be added to domestic procedure to fit it for
political purposes. Professional assistance service rendered by a class of
men labourers who for appropriate suitable wages are content to render it to whosoever
presents an effectual demand for it.
