Rooted in the belief that justice is a right, not a privilege, Volunteer Lawyers for Justice envisions a New Jersey where people experiencing poverty have equal access to justice. That vision is brought to life in partnership with volunteers who deliver free civil legal help that protects rights, expands opportunity, drives economic mobility, and strengthens communities.

Thanks to VLJ volunteer Chris Vanderwolk, a veteran client is back on the road with stable employment and brighter prospects.
