India Justice Foundation unites senior advocates, legal academics, volunteer lawyers, and law student researchers into a dedicated pro bono network in Chennai. Together, this multidisciplinary team directs free legal aid clinics, litigation support, and legal literacy initiatives across Tamil Nadu.
Advisory Council and Legal Mentors
The foundation benefits from the guidance of experienced legal practitioners, retired judicial officers, and academic scholars who advise on complex litigation strategy, ethical standards, and public interest priorities.
Mentors oversee student research projects, review appellate briefs, and conduct legal skill workshops to ensure that pro bono representation meets the highest professional benchmarks established by the Bar Council of India professional standards for legal practice.
Distinguished legal professionals interested in serving on our advisory panel or conducting practical litigation masterclasses are encouraged to submit a mentor inquiry through our contact portal.
