ProJourn Review Process

After the checkup, the ProJourn team reviews the intake information and identifies your legal needs listed in order of priority. Once the news organization has confirmed this order of priority, the ProJourn team will begin contacting pro bono attorneys to match their legal needs staggered, according to their priority order. 

The ProJourn team will work with each news organization to ensure they take care of their legal needs in a strategic and non-overwhelming manner.
