Brian:
NJP&A operates just like a law office. All communications with staff
are confidential, in accordance with court rules. If we decide not to
intervene in a matter, we will return the original of any information
received from the client, but we may need to keep a copy of some
materials in our file to memorialize our actions. This information
continues to be subject to the rules of confidentiality.
We can represent individuals in legal actions. Whether we will depends
on whether the matter falls within our priorities and meets our case
selection criteria.
If you need additional information, please call our intake unit between
9 a.m and 1 p.m.

Deputy Director
