Legal Foundation For Social Justice

The Social Justice Legal Foundation (SJLF), established in 2021 by seasoned trial lawyers, aims to cultivate a new generation of public interest litigators in response to the civil rights movements that emerged following George Floyd's murder. Through strategic trial litigation, SJLF addresses critical issues such as police misconduct, immigration detention conditions, and the criminalization of poverty while training young attorneys in complex legal processes.

Collaborating with top law schools and grassroots movements, SJLF takes on significant cases that impact marginalized communities, utilizing litigation as a pivotal tool for social change. The foundation recognizes that true progress is achieved through the efforts of a diverse array of advocates, organizers, and educators, reinforcing community relationships to meet the needs of those they serve.
