Editorial independence

Independence

Sponsorship never decides coverage.

Sponsors, advertisers, and partners have no say in which investigations Clutch Justice pursues, how they are reported, or when they publish. Every sponsored placement is clearly labeled and kept separate from editorial content. Clutch Justice does not accept payment for favorable coverage, and reserves the right to decline any sponsorship, or refund a purchase, that conflicts with active or anticipated investigative coverage.

Sponsor FAQ

Questions, answered.

Will sponsorship influence Clutch Justice’s coverage?

No. Sponsors have no input into which stories are pursued, how they are reported, or when they publish. Sponsored placements are always clearly labeled and kept separate from editorial content.

How is pricing determined?

Pricing reflects audience quality and specificity, not raw traffic volume. Clutch Justice reaches a small, highly engaged professional readership of attorneys, investigators, and policy staff that is difficult to reach through general interest media.

What happens after I reserve a sponsorship?

Rita Williams of Clutch Justice will follow up by email to collect your logo or approved graphic, destination link, sponsor copy, and any other materials needed for your placement. Your placement date or sponsorship schedule will be confirmed before anything goes live.

How many sponsors do you accept at once?

Clutch Justice intentionally limits sponsor volume per quarter to protect the reader experience and preserve the credibility of every placement. Availability is confirmed when you reserve or inquire.

Do app sponsors get access to tips, evidence, or user data?

No. App sponsorship never provides access to confidential tips, evidence, or user information. Sponsors have no editorial or investigative influence and cannot influence CourtWatch ratings, findings, or case coverage.

Can we sponsor a specific investigative series?

Yes. Article Series Sponsorship attaches your brand to a defined investigative series rather than the whole publication, making it a strong option for sponsors seeking topical relevance.

Your brand, in front of the people who hold power accountable.
