"One of the constitutional obligations of states is the defence of human rights. Such state activities encompass free pre-litigation legal aid. In search for solutions allowing to improve Polish model, the Authors employed a comparative method. As a result, solutions adopted in international law, Sweden, Ukraine, and the United Kingdom were analyzed. Swedish law is an example of a system with a rich legislative history in the area of free legal aid and contemporary solutions based on the model of legal aid with a "discount". The choice of Ukraine was based on the fact that its regulations are very modern, elastic and put to the ultimate test of war. The United Kingdom was chosen as an example of a country with a common law system, where pre-litigation-free legal aid has its unique form based on grant financing. In the summary of the book, the Authors strive for presenting the proposal of a model of free pre-litigation legal aid for the polish legal realm based on the experience of compared legal systems"-- Provided by publisher.
