JRF PROFESSIONAL NETWORK
Bring Professional Experience
to Justice Reform
The Justice Restoration Foundation is building a national network of attorneys, former prosecutors, medical professionals, accountants, researchers, business leaders, and other experts committed to strengthening accountability, due process, and fairness in the federal justice system.
WHY THIS NETWORK MATTERS
Experience Can Reveal Where the System Fails
The consequences of government overreach extend far beyond the courtroom. Investigations and prosecutions can affect businesses, professional licenses, healthcare practices, employees, families, and entire communities.
Understanding those consequences requires more than one professional perspective.
JRF’s Professional Network brings together people with legal, financial, medical, academic, technical, communications, and business experience. Members help us examine systemic problems, test research questions, evaluate practical safeguards, and explain complicated justice issues to the public.
Participation is informal and can be tailored to each member’s experience, interests, and availability.
WHO SHOULD JOIN
A Multidisciplinary Network
We welcome professionals who can help JRF understand how federal enforcement practices operate—and how their consequences extend into workplaces, industries, families, and communities.
Medical and Healthcare Professionals
Physicians, practice administrators, healthcare executives, billing specialists, and compliance professionals with experience involving healthcare regulation and enforcement.
Financial and Business Professionals
Accountants, CPAs, economists, business owners, executives, financial analysts, and valuation professionals who understand the economic consequences of investigations and prosecutions.
Researchers and Subject-Matter Experts
Academics, data professionals, policy researchers, historians, and other experts who can contribute research methods, analysis, and institutional knowledge.

OUR ROLE
A Network for Systemic Reform
The Professional Network supports JRF's research, education, collaboration, and justice reform efforts. By bringing together experienced professionals, we work to identify systemic problems, strengthen safeguards, and advance meaningful reforms.
JRF also recognizes that individuals and families often struggle to find qualified legal help. Through our Professional Network, we may be able to connect them with attorneys who have experience handling similar cases.
JRF does not provide legal representation, legal, medical, or financial advice, or direct assistance with individual cases. We do not guarantee attorney availability, acceptance of a case, or any legal outcome. Any professional relationship is established independently between the individual and the professional.
Joining the network does not create an attorney-client, professional, employment, or agency relationship with JRF.
Our focus remains on reforming systems, strengthening safeguards, and helping people find a path forward. We do not ask network members to take a position on the guilt or innocence of any individual.

Better Safeguards Require More Than One Perspective
Legal rules do not operate in isolation. Their consequences reach businesses, medical practices, careers, families, and communities. By bringing different forms of professional experience into the same conversation, we can develop reforms that are better informed, more practical, and more durable.
