Volunteer Lawyers for Justice (VLJ) provides comprehensive legal services to economically-disadvantaged adults, children, and families in New Jersey through volunteer attorneys recruited and trained by VLJ. Programs include free legal counsel and advice, educational seminars on various legal matters, and direct representation for at-risk individuals facing critical civil legal issues. VLJ was created in 2001 as a program of the Legal Services Foundation of Essex County to provide direct legal representation to residents of Essex County, New Jersey. The program began with one staff person and a core group of 30 volunteer attorneys. In 2008, VLJ separately incorporated as its own 501(c)(3) New Jersey not-for-profit corporation. Today, VLJ provides free legal services throughout the state through six staff attorneys, additional support personnel and more than 1,500 attorneys and paralegals who volunteer their time for one or more of VLJ’s nine distinct legal projects.Volunteer Lawyers for Justice Address
