Contact the Legal Services Coordinator

Emailing legalsupport@safeaccessnow.org is the best and most efficient way to reach the Legal Services Coordinator. If that is impossible for you, the Legal Services Coordinator also takes live calls every Tuesday and Thursday from 11am to 7pm at (510) 251-1856 and you can always leave a voicemail (although please leave only one, as multiple voicemails slow down response time).

In your email (or voicemail), please include:

Criminal/Law Enforcement Encounter
  • Your next court date
  • How much MMJ confiscated
  • Charges
  • County in which incident took place
  • Law Enforcement Agency involved
  • Date of incident
Civil
  • Date and type of your next court date
  • Type of issue (Employment, Child Custody, Housing, Other)
  • Date and nature of first negative interaction with decisionmaker (employer/landlord/CPS worker), and include the full name
  • What has happened since the first interaction
  • Note any papers that have been filed by you or the opposing party, and any judicial decisions
  • County in which incident took place

Please note that the Legal Department is still running under capacity, and your legal inquiry will be placed in a queue, so it may be some amount of time before you receive a response.

Additionally, please email legalsupport@safeaccessnow.org to share how the FAQ information helped you get your case dropped, and give ASA feedback on how this information was helpful, and what we could do better.
