How AI can bridge the gap in access to justice

At Anthony Collins, we believe the law is more than a profession. It is a powerful tool for creating a fairer and more inclusive society. That belief drives everything we do and it is why we are embracing innovation to make a small step towards making justice available to everyone.

Family law touches people at their most vulnerable moments. When a relationship breaks down, the need for clear and compassionate advice is urgent. Yet for many, that advice feels out of reach. The cost, distance and emotion involved in visiting a solicitor's office can create barriers, leaving individuals feeling isolated and unsure of where to turn for help. 

Why access to justice still falls short

Legal support should be available to everyone, but the reality is different. Many people face long waits or aren't sure where to start. For those in rural areas or working unsociable hours, getting help can feel impossible. And then there is a fear of judgment or embarrassment that stops someone from asking for advice when they need it most.

Technology offers a way forward. Not as a replacement for human lawyers but as a bridge to help people take the first step toward resolution.

How AI can make a difference

AI can deliver empathy in a new form. That is why we created Aida, designed to guide anyone, anywhere, through the first stages of a relationship breakdown. Available 24/7, Aida offers free and confidential support when offices are closed or when speaking to a person feels too daunting.

What makes Aida different is the way she is programmed, not just to provide information but to respond with understanding. She is there for those long nights when worry keeps you awake and for those moments when you need clarity without judgment. By removing barriers of geography and emotional discomfort, AI can help level the playing field.

Aida in action

Aida is more than a chatbot. Aida was created because we understand that finding answers during a divorce or relationship breakdown can be challenging. Aida aims to answer your questions and help you decide whether to speak to a solicitor. Aida is ready to help you take that first step toward resolution without charge, pressure and judgment.

The future of justice

Technology will not solve every problem, but it can make justice more accessible. For us, Aida is just the beginning. We believe that innovation should serve people, not replace them and that empathy should always be at the heart of legal advice, whether it comes from a person or a digital assistant.

If you or someone you know needs guidance during a relationship breakdown, Aida is here to help.
