Equality in the eyes of the Law and to equal Representation

INTERNATIONAL LAW

It’s time to become educated because if you don’t know your rights you essentially have none.

Knowing and understanding what your rights are, legal or otherwise, can be a challenging and confusing time .

Now more than ever is the time we need to be looking after our interests, which means we need to set aside some time to start to know and understand what rights we have and how we can exercise them when confronted with issues rather than being steam rolled or bullied into complying.
