About
Building access to justice for everyone.
Immediate legal support when it matters most. Connect with a lawyer in minutes, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
What we do
Our mission is to empower marginalized communities and create systemic transformation by using technology and community organizing to provide immediate access to legal support. By providing access to immediate legal representation, individuals are given a chance to prevent lifelong consequences for wrongful charges
Our Story
Good Call was founded at Blue Ridge Labs in 2016, after dozens of New Yorkers described the same experience: being arrested for a minor offense, with no way to call a loved one or reach a lawyer.
The cost was lost jobs, weeks in jail, even false confessions. We launched on October 17, 2016 to change that, connecting people to legal support and loved ones in the moments that matter most.
Our Mission Today
The people most affected by injustice often face the greatest barriers to getting help. Without immediate legal support, they risk decisions that carry lasting consequences. Good Call exists to remove those barriers, making legal support immediate, accessible, and human.
