• Episode 13: Criminal Gideon, Civil Gideon, And Gender

  This "Student Voices" episode of Proof Over Precedent discusses the critical need for providing legal representation in civil cases—particularly those in which an individual's home, family, or safety is at risk. While the right to counsel already extends to criminal cases in both federal and state courts, it does not currently extend to civil cases, where the socioeconomic outcomes often affect women more so than men. HLS LLM Laura Aquino asks why civil cases are not treated with the same level of importance as criminal cases and argues that expanding legal access is a matter of both fairness and justice.
