The California Innocence Project is a not-for-profit organization that works to exonerate people who have been wrongfully convicted. The project uses DNA testing, other techniques, and legal representation to challenge their convictions in court. Because the Innocence Project does not take cases pro bono, it relies on funding from donors, corporations, and foundations to support its work.

The California Innocence Project is a results-oriented organization that works on behalf of innocent defendants using DNA testing and other techniques to challenge their convictions.

We help people who have been wrongfully convicted of crimes they did not commit, provide free legal services to inmates seeking exoneration from prison sentences imposed by courts, and assist families with the challenging task of discovering the truth about their loved ones’ deaths.

The California Innocence Project relies on donations from individuals like you who want justice for those unjustly imprisoned in California’s criminal justice system. In addition to helping us achieve our mission through your tax-deductible donation, you can also volunteer or make a monthly pledge toward our efforts at www.innocentiaproject.org/donate/.

The California Innocence Project does not take cases pro bono. Rather, we offer our services for a modest fee or no fee at all if there are no charges to the client.

We only take cases where there is evidence of wrongful conviction and where we believe it is in the best interest of justice for you to have your record sealed or expunged (destroyed).

We only take cases where there is evidence of wrongful conviction, such as missing critical evidence, false confession or faulty eyewitness identification, false testimony by law enforcement officers, perjury of witnesses, and more.

The Innocence Project only takes cases that meet certain criteria established by the project’s legal team. These include:

A valid guilty plea is entered before a judge who reviews the whole case and determines whether it was properly obtained
Evidence of prosecutorial misconduct, such as ignoring exculpatory evidence or withholding favorable testimony from an eyewitness
Reliability of informants’ information and/or false confessions

The case must meet certain criteria established by the Innocence Commission to be eligible for review by the project’s legal team. The first criterion is that the conviction must be based on a valid guilty plea entered before a judge who reviews the whole case and determines whether it was properly obtained.

The case must meet certain criteria established by the Innocence Commission to be eligible for review by the project’s legal team. The first criterion is that the conviction must be based on a valid guilty plea entered before a judge who reviews the whole case and determines whether it was properly obtained.

The second criterion is that there must be DNA evidence linking your client to the crime, or at least credible eyewitness testimony that establishes him as being involved in it. If your client did not personally commit any crime but was accused of one by prosecutors, then he would not be eligible for review under this category because no one could testify against him based on his actions alone (no matter how bad they might have been).
