A pioneering law centre with a radical agenda: 'bringing law to the people' in the early 1970s.

Peter Kandler, co-founder of the North Kensington Law Centre, explains - with hard-hitting directness - why he switched from a private legal practice to establish a free legal service: he was 'fed up with rich obnoxious clients'. He wanted to 'bring law to the people', by enabling those with limited means 'to stand up for themselves'. Kandler is shown helping a family who have been evicted to 'break in' to a barricaded house, and also assisting a woman whose landlord was failing to deal with repairs. This documentary report includes office and street scenes in North Kensington, including a shot of the Trellick Tower.
