Protecting Justice

At the heart of our mission is the belief that justice delayed is justice denied. We provide confidential and professional canonical advocacy for clergy, including bishops, priests, or deacons, as well as lay people. Our commitment is to pursue the truth, promote justice, and ensure the legitimate exercise of their right to defense, particularly in the face of accusations of misconduct, including those related to the sensitive matter of sexual abuse of minors. Throughout the preliminary investigation, penal process, and potential appeals, our dedicated team stands by individuals, offering support and advocacy at every step.

Defending Rights

Our advocacy extends beyond individual defense, encompassing the presentation of hierarchical recourse against administrative decisions made by legitimate ecclesiastical authorities. We are also here to assist in presenting accusations of misconduct involving clergy members and in preparing and presenting petitions for the grace of a dispensation from the obligations of the clerical state, including celibacy. Additionally, our services include supporting individuals in presenting accusations of mishandling of clergy misconduct allegations on the part of ecclesiastical authorities, aligning with the principles outlined in Vos estis lux mundi.
