Civil Liberties & Accountability Advocacy

Expert consultation on advancing civil liberties, pursuing lawful remedies, and holding institutions accountable through diligent analysis and trusted partnerships.

Whistleblower & Victim Support

If you are navigating retaliation, coercion, workplace or government-sector misconduct, or other harm, we can help you organize your record and communicate effectively—so you can take informed next steps, document and escalate concerns through appropriate channels, and pursue the right professional support.

What we can do

  1. Listen and gather high-level facts and documentation.
  2. Help you organize a timeline and preserve key records (non-legal).
  3. Share general resources and encourage consultation with licensed counsel or appropriate agencies.

Cost

Initial intake is no cost. If we can provide ongoing support, we will outline an optional, written scope and terms before any support begins.

Firm Vetting

Blacklight is highly selective in the law firms with whom it partners. We do not seek volume relationships—we seek aligned, capable collaborators.

In evaluating a firm, we assess whether it:

  • Demonstrates careful review, issue-spotting, and the ability to identify broader legal, strategic, and systemic implications;
  • Understands and values the depth, rigor, and strategic utility of Blacklight’s work and services;
  • Treats partners and clients with professionalism, dignity, empathy, and a demonstrable duty of care;
  • Operates with competence, decisiveness, and an appropriate sense of urgency—without sacrificing quality or judgment.

We partner with firms that possess not only technical excellence, but the conviction, integrity, and resolve to pursue meaningful outcomes and lasting impact.

Join The Blacklight Law Firm Network

We partner with a select group of firms to provide structured, intake-ready investigative support that compresses early-stage evaluation and reduces unnecessary front-end burn.

How we support your team

  1. Scope & triage: identify the core issues, key actors, and likely case posture.
  2. Evidence organization: gather and index records, build a “who-knew-what-when” timeline, and catalog corroboration points.
  3. Knowledge transfer: walk counsel through sources, systems, and witness leads; provide ongoing non-legal support.

Blacklight’s services are custom-scoped. Pricing and retainer terms are determined by the matter’s complexity, urgency, and deliverables, and are confirmed in a written agreement before services begin
