About Us
How we help:
Counsel for Justice (CFJ) serves people directly in community locations where they most need assistance, including the Stanley Mosk Courthouse, U.S. Federal Building, and Patriotic Hall. We offer both in-person and remote volunteer opportunities.
It’s a gift to be able to help people navigate a complicated, inaccessible judicial system.
– Pro Bono Attorney
It was the best decision I’ve ever made to go there. They helped me (…) get the restraining order, and now I’m living peacefully.
