The Centre de justice de proximité de Laval-Laurentides-Lanaudière (CJP-LLL) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote access to justice by fostering citizen participation through free legal information services, support and referrals to existing resources.
The CJP-LLL initially stood apart from the other Centres by exclusively offering services in Info-Separation and Info-Small Claims Case Service when it was created in 2021. Since October 2022, the Centre now offers legal information in various areas of law as the other CJP.
The CJP-LLL takes a personalized approach based on participatory justice. This approach is based on welcoming and exploring the needs and interests of citizens. Its aim is to provide citizens with information to be prepared to make an informed decision.
The CJP-LLL is a hub of information on dispute prevention and resolution (DPR) which aims to explain such dispute resolutions as mediation, negotiation, amicable settlement conference, etc. It also aims to create innovative tools to better understand and address DPR.
The CJP-LLL shares the same values as the other Centres in addition to fostering a human approach based on listening, collaboration and the belief in people’s ability to make learned decisions.
