The expansion of the legal profession has been beneficial for legal awareness.

As of 2002, there have been established 2, 156 legal aid centres staffed by over 7000 full-time legal professionals.

According to the Ministry of Justice, this system will continue to expand, given that " establishing a legal aid system " is a priority of the Chinese government as outlined by the 10th Five-Year Plan ( adopted April 2002 ).
