Funded Justice is a relatively new crowd-funding platform that
is specific to those who need help
raising money for legal reasons. Funded Justice launched in the United
States in 2014. Since that launch, they have been able to help many people with
obtaining the attorney they needed to seek justice in their situation.
Funded Justice is different from other crowd funding sites.
They will not discriminate against what your legal issue is, and they believe
everyone is innocent until proven guilty. Coupling that with the passion and
belief that justice shouldn’t cost money, Funded Justice is becoming the
premier platform for its users. Funded
Justice also helps its users with their campaigns, unlike any other platform.
From a strong social media push to crowd speaking to press releases, whatever
the staff at Funded Justice can do to help their users raise money, they will
do.
The site is very easy to use, for both the person needing
the funds, and the person giving the funds. To start a campaign, all that the
user has to do is create an account, add picture or video (if and when
available) and describe their situation. The user will then be prompted to set
up a Stripe account to allow donations to go directly to their bank accounts. Once
all of those steps are done, Funded Justice will review the campaign, approve
and launch. With the help of Funded Justice’s new technology using Stripe.com,
international campaigns can be created.
Currently Funded Justice is supporting a Canadian campaign,
“The Indian Child Welfare Act Victims Legal Defense Fund,” has set a heavy goal
of raising $5 million dollars. With technology, social media, and viral news
that goal is perfectly obtainable; especially now that FundedJustice.com has
the ability to accept international payments.
Crowd Funding for
legal fees is catching on and becoming a very popular way to get the legal
help you need. After all, we may not know one person who can afford to give us
$2000 for an attorney’s retainer, but we may be able to reach 100 people who
can each give us $20.
