    Courts in several provinces, including Manitoba, Alberta and Nova Scotia, have issued directives to lawyers, self-represented litigants and intervenors on how they may use automated tools in court filings.

    Not sure I like the notion of limiting self-representing people from having access to whatever legal help they can get.

        “free lawyer” is not a thing very many places or for very many situations, and in the United States, they are rarely going to have enough time to speak to you at all.

        Though you may be constitutionally entitled to a lawyer, it does not require it to be free, affordable, or functional.
