CrowdJustice provides a platform for hosting and managing fundraising campaigns for legal cases. To help you navigate campaign management and maintain transparency with contributors, here are answers to common questions:
Can I Redirect Contributors to a New Campaign?
When you create a new campaign, you can choose to either close your previous campaign or leave it open. If you decide to close the old campaign, any contributors visiting the old campaign's URL can be redirected automatically to the new one. To ensure a smooth transition for your supporters, it is recommended to post updates on the previous campaign and send out emails to explain the change and provide a link to the new campaign. This minimizes confusion and ensures contributors stay informed.
How Can Contributors Track the Use of Their Donations?
Transparency is a cornerstone of successful fundraising on CrowdJustice. Case Owners are expected to provide updates about their case through emails and updates on the public case page. For effective communication, it is recommended to post updates and send emails to backers at the exact time the new campaign launches. Clearly explain the reasoning behind starting a new campaign and the need for additional funds. Even after a campaign has been closed, maintaining communication with backers can help ensure ongoing engagement and support.
Contributors can visit the campaign’s case page to find the latest updates.

Ensuring the legal compliance of your crowdfunding campaign
By understanding and applying these guidelines, you can effectively manage your CrowdJustice fundraising campaigns and maintain transparency, fostering trust and support from your contributors. Proper planning, timely updates, and clear communication during campaign transitions not only build trust but also help in maintaining consistent fundraising momentum. Anticipating a potential surge in donations when starting a new campaign and staying organised with communications can significantly contribute to your campaign's success.
In cases where a change of legal representative is necessary, be aware that platform policies dictate the creation of a new campaign under the new representative. Clear communication about this policy can aid in maintaining contributor trust.
