Contents: In 2005 New Zealand signalled its intention to reform legal services by contracting research on disabled people's priorities in Auckland. The Legal Services Agency reported that because many disabled people do not have access to necessary legal services in New Zealand their priorities should be identified. This article suggests that the social model offers a philosophical framework for developing services. The relevance of this claim is illustrated from a review of the literature reporting legal issues faced by disabled people in New Zealand. The article concludes with a description of a service proposal based on international models.
