Figure 10: Percent Experiencing Disruption in Daily Living by Response to Justiciable Problems

Figure 10 is a three dimensional bar graph that illustrates the proportion of respondents that reported that their problem was either extremely or very disruptive to their daily lives according to their responses to justiciable problems. The x-axis displays five different responses to justiciable problems (from figure 9): No Action: not Important, no action: reason, self-help, non-legal assistance, legal assistance. The y-axis represents the proportion of respondents in each category that reported their problem was extremely or very disruptive to their daily lives. It ranges from 0 to 50. The legal assistance category is the most prominent bar (41.8%) followed by non-legal assistance (35.3%), no action: reason (21.9%), self-help (18.6%) and no action: not important (13.5%).
