Abstract: | This essay arises from the experiences of a practitioner who has, until recently, managed a project offering services to those
under threat from paramilitary organisations. This essay is divided into two sections. The first section offers an overview
of the ideologies and practices of Loyalist and Republican paramilitaries regarding informal justice. The second section examines
the problems of intervention with those under threat and the insights offered by an analysis of the project’s casework.
