The satirical critique of the English Chancery court system drives the narrative, highlighting its notorious inefficiency and complexity. Through various characters and sub-plots, the story unfolds primarily from the perspective of Esther Summerson, alongside an omniscient narrator. Central to the plot is the protracted legal case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce, stemming from conflicting wills. This work not only entertains but also advocates for judicial reform, influencing significant changes in the legal system during the 1870s.
