Court???... What do people feel about Court?

2day, i'm approached by an old lady where we act as her Solicitors to take charge of a matter of which Probate matter. Basically, we need to file a petition to High Court to get a so called Grant Of Probate before the lady could legally execute her husband's (deceased) property. So, I had a conversation with the lady for almost 40 minutes, I was not surprised when she asked us how long should this take about as she handed the similar case to her previous lawyer and the lawyer drag about 2 years. By all means, she was quite angry & unsatisfied with our Court System.

Generally, people are not sure what is the "Court" and to what extend The Court has its power. Additionally, people do think that Court is the place where Criminals are taken to be tried. Similarly, people refer the Court to the Criminal Court. Perhaps, we do have Civil Court System. This means that initiating Or considering initiating court proceedings involves an automatic sense of being involved in wrongdoing and a fear that no one may somehow be punished. The Public has always bear in mind that "I have never had to go to court because I have done No wrong, Thankgoodness". Furtherance, people always question "Do you think you would get a fair hearing if you went to court?"... "Do you have confidence in our Court System?"as we are always told that there are many Corrupted Judges sitting on the bench despite enjoying their Judge's lives.

For God Sake, this is the negative perception of the Public on our Judicial System. However, in real world, Court is the right place where we can seek for Justice. Let say, the Government corrupts, the Rule makers worse, the only hope left to us is our Court. No matter what happens, Court should never fell in Darkness. Fairness would definitely be the Doctrine of which the Court should upholds until... No end... "I might sound biased to the Court?"

One more matter which I like to touch on which is the "hearing" of Court Case. Generally, Public has the sense that the proceedings of the Court are very interesting where they are Plantifs and Defendants arguing on behalf of their Clients. In some circumstances, I must agree with u that the Arguments do take place but believe me, Proceedings are never the same as we watch in TV & dramas. Speaking frankly, it is quite boring! This is what I could vomit out after I attended some hearings in Courts.

Hence, people shall understand despite knowing our Court more in detail. Perhaps, legal field people may liable to take up this responsiblity? We don't want people have the thoughts of which Court is only refer to Criminal Courts solely...
