CrowdJustice can be used to fund all types of legal matters, at every stage of the legal process. We've helped people to raise funds for initial solicitor's advice all the way to taking cases to the Supreme Court.
Funds can be raised to pay lawyers' fees, expert witness fees, court fees, adverse costs, disbursements, or to support legal campaigns. Generally your instructed lawyer will decide with you how to best use your funds.
Frequently Asked Questions About Fund Use
Can funds be used for non-legal costs?
Funds raised on CrowdJustice must be used for legitimate legal expenses and case expenses, as detailed in your campaign case page.
How do I modify my campaign page to include these details?
Go to your dashboard to edit your campaign page, and provide a clear breakdown of costs to avoid confusion among your supporters. If your page is already live, please contact the support team to request an edit as you won't be able to do this yourself.

Clearly document the intended use of all raised funds to ensure compliance and transparency.
Follow platform tools and guidelines to provide funding updates and maintain trust with supporters.
