Welcome to the People's Justice Project!
People's Justice Project is a non-profit law firm that protects the civil rights, liberties and dignity of all Santa Barbara County residents through the provision of high-quality legal and social services, including (1) civil rights litigation, (2) screening for U.S. citizenship eligibility, applying for U.S. citizenship, and other immigration law services, and (3) criminal defense litigation, including post-conviction services.
We help fill the justice gap by connecting low and moderate income community members with affordable legal representation. Due to our 501(c)(3) non-profit organization status, our attorneys are able to provide legal representation at a lower rate than most private firms and have more time to devote to your needs than most public defender or legal aid offices.
LEGAL UPDATE JAN. 1, 2021: A new change in California law specifies the maximum term of probation for most misdemeanors for a period not to exceed one year and for most felonies for a period not to exceed two years.
If you are interested in terminating your probation in accordance with the new law, PJP can file a petition with the court and advocate for the termination of your probation at your hearing.
Contact: legal@peoplesjusticeproject.org or call (805) 242-6691 for a free, no obligation consultation.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions.
