Public-interest justice and evidence

The Tie Mwape archive and cannabis-testing work sharpened the public story: accusation, evidence, procedure and outcome must be kept separate.

ADR, community and secure case files

Mediation drafts, client workflows, community legal work and grant tracking now point toward a login-based portal for matters, documents and next steps.

Client case files

A login-based start for real matters.

Clients sign in with a verified identity and receive a Legal By Nature client reference on first access. Each matter can keep the client, documents, timeline, tasks and next step together while private files stay out of the public website. A name or ID alone never unlocks a case file.
