Born from host and Executive Director of With You We Can Sarah Rosenberg’s own experience and years of national advocacy, the series sits at the centre of a live moment of legal reform. Through examining police as the gatekeepers of justice and exploring calls for cultural and legislative change following the Australian Law Reform Commission’s landmark recommendations, this series investigates a confronting question: why are victim-survivors still the only people in court without a lawyer?

Across the season, advocates, lawyers, academics, police and policymakers come together to unpack the realities of an adversarial legal system - and the attrition, confusion and harm that too often define it.

This is not a podcast about legal theory in isolation. It is about power, participation, credibility, culture and what justice actually means when systems were never designed with victim-survivors in mind.
