Hi! My name is Heather Hui-Litwin. I started this channel to provide legal education to the public. Originally, it was aimed at self-represented litigants, because I was one myself before becoming a lawyer! I felt that legal education should not be reserved just for law students and lawyers. This is my way of promoting access to justice. I am now expanding to cover legal topics beyond litigation.
