The challenges QLRs Face
Last-Minute Appointments
Court appointments and bundles are often delivered too late to allow meaningful preparation.
Financial Strain
Unpaid prep time, delayed reimbursements, and travel costs make the role unsustainable for many.
Role Confusion
Courts and parties sometimes misunderstand the limited scope of QLR duties, leading to inappropriate expectations.
Lack of Support
QLRs often work in isolation, without structured networks or resources.
The AQLR exists to change this — for the benefit of practitioners and the justice system alike.
