Want Justice For All? Start a monthly Justice Center in your area!

Flexible Schedule | Elgin, IL 60123

As a nation we pledge "justice for all", but in reality millions of Americans are unable to access justice. Unable to receive protection for their livelihood, health and families. 1 in 3 Americans cannot afford an attorney. Without legal help they struggle in a cycle of fear, uncertainty and hopelessness. These men, women and children are our neighbors and they need our help. We're looking for more teams to build justice centers consisting of churches, attorneys & volunteers to serve thousands of individuals seeking JUSTICE. Each team should consist of a group of attorneys, 1-2 interpreters, 1 advocate and 2 administrative coordinators. There is no cost to starting your center. We provide all the tools and materials you need. You simply need to identify those willing to serve! * Attorneys to meet with clients * Interpreters to translate for attorneys * Advocates to offer other resources and prayer to clients *Clerical/ Administrative Coordinators to process clients and paperwork * Hospitality to bring cookies/coffee for clients Please visit our site www.GJI.org to learn more and download our guides to get started!

Volunteer Attorney

Flexible Schedule | Virtual Opportunity

Help us offer the help of an attorney and the hope of God's love - serve virtually from anywhere, or choose a convenient location for an in-person experience! Are you an active or inactive attorney looking to share your legal knowledge with the under served community? Are you ready to empower clients and make a difference in your community? Our clients come to us because they have a civil, legal matter for which they need guidance. We see spouses looking for advice regarding divorce and single parents needing counsel on visitation and child support. We see elderly clients who have been victims of fraud and those who have lost what little they had to predatory lenders. We deal with landlord/tenant situations, contract disputes, custody enforcement, and many other civil issues. Volunteer attorneys provide brief advice, counsel, pro se coaching and referral in a 30-45 minute client appointment. Maximum 3-4 hours per month. Without our services, many would do nothing about their situation which often turns into a major and complex issue. Any time you're willing to give makes a tremendous difference to those we serve!

Because volunteer work helps in giving back to the community and assisting people in need. Crises or natural disasters forced many people out of their homes seeking to survive. Through volunteer work lives and property are saved.
