# Give judgment, not admin. > As of August 2026: the waitlist is not yet open. No matters exist here, and no hours can be given yet. Half of every donated hour dies before it reaches a client: intake, scheduling, conflicts paperwork, scope that quietly grows. What is being built here is the other version. The machine carries the toil; you review bounded acts in minutes; the pen never leaves your hand. It is not running yet, and this page says so. ## The demand side **For 92% of their civil legal problems, low-income Americans get no real help.** The Legal Services Corporation's Justice Gap study (2022): low-income Americans did not receive any or enough legal help for 92% of their substantial civil legal problems. `Source: justicegap.lsc.gov, read 31 July 2026.` ## One act: 8 to 25 minutes of judgment. Not a matter, not an evening, not an intake queue. The unit of donation being built is a single reviewed act, scoped before you see it. Who does what is fixed by design: - **The machine.** Drafts. It assembles the papers, tracks the procedure, and carries the toil that used to consume the donated hour. It proposes; it never signs, and it holds no license-side verb. - **A student.** Questions. In the clinic model this is drawn from, a student interrogates the draft before it ever reaches you, and the questioning is the education. - **You.** Judge and sign. You review, you question, you send back, you decline. Nothing goes out that you have not signed, and nothing can be committed past your refusal. - **The client.** Pays nothing. This door sells nothing on either side, and never will. - **The record.** Logs every step: who drafted, who questioned, who signed, what was declined. The log exists to protect the lawyer who signed, not to watch you. Scope is fixed before you claim an act. No ambient duties trail behind it, and no one asks "can you also look at" afterward. ## Your donated time, documented. Every act you sign, every draft you send back, every clean declination: logged, with minutes attached. The answer to "did my time matter?" becomes a document instead of a feeling, in a form you can take to your own bar's pro bono reporting. Your rules, your call. What the record is not: endorsed. No court, no bar, and no school has approved any of this, and this page claims no continuing-education credit and no certification of any kind on your behalf. ## What is true today - **Waitlist.** Not yet open. There is nothing to sign and no queue to hold a place in. When it opens, the dated line at the top of this page will change. - **Matters.** None exist here. No client is waiting behind this page, and this page will not pretend one is. - **Where first.** The pilot design is Minnesota-first, and nowhere else first. Interest from any other jurisdiction will be recorded as interest only, and this page will not imply a wider opening than exists. ## What the waitlist will ask Not a form. This is the shape of the entry you will make when the list opens, so you can see the scope is yours before anything exists to sign. - `LICENSE` bar number and state of admission - `JURISDICTIONS` where you will act, and nowhere else - `MATTERS` the civil matter types you will review - `MINUTES / MONTH` the bounded time you choose to give Scoped in your terms: minutes, matters, jurisdictions. It will commit you to nothing and us to nothing, and the form will say so where it asks. ## Three steps. One of them exists today. 1. **Read the design.** Five minutes with the model: who drafts, who questions, who signs, what is logged, what the client pays. The full argument, with its primary sources named, is public at law.org.ai/mn. This is the step that exists. 2. **Join the list when it opens.** Jurisdiction, matter types, minutes per month. Interest-gathering, labeled as such: not an engagement, not an application, not a commitment in either direction. 3. **One letter when it is real.** The address you give will be used to tell you when there is something true to say: matters that exist, hours that can land. Nothing else. No drip, no "updates," no manufactured queue. - [Read the design at law.org.ai/mn](https://law.org.ai/mn) ## When the list opens, this page will say so. The dated line at the top of this page is the status. It changes exactly when something is real, and not before. The loud version of AI in law removes the lawyer. This one is being built to keep the lawyer in, and the lawyer is you. Independent practice, for clients who retain you, is a different door: [gigs.lawyer](https://gigs.lawyer). Nothing is sold on this one. ## For machines This page content-negotiates: browsers get HTML, every other client gets this markdown. GET /healthz is a typed liveness probe. There is no waitlist endpoint on this host yet; the waitlist is not yet open. --- justice.gives · the attorney door of the justice family · a waitlist being built in the open · [freejustice.co](https://freejustice.co) · [justice.charity](https://justice.charity) · [law.org.ai/mn](https://law.org.ai/mn)
