Our History
Founded in 2021, CGG Law Partners emerged from a share
entrepreneurial spirit and a deep commitment to justice within the legal community. Jason Lee Garcia and Carolina Garza-Gongora, the founding partners, first connected as solo practitioners while advocating for social equity in the Adult Use Cannabis market in Illinois.
After witnessing systemic injustices, especially against social equity
applicants, they were determined to create a law firm that would not only serve its clients with integrity but also challenge and change the industry’s standards. CGG Law Partners was established as a full-service, Latino-led law firm that prioritizes client empowerment, transparency, and access to justice.

Know Your Rights, Know Your Worth
“Know Your Rights, Know Your Worth” is a community based and
built legal education campaign that hosts community forums and legal education seminars in local neighborhoods in the Chicagoland area that have been historically disparately impacted. “Know Your Rights, Know Your Worth” was founded on the principle that when people are educated on their legal rights, they can demand that those rights be respected and better advocate for themselves while at the same time acknowledging and respecting the rights of others. We understand that rights and responsibilities are intertwined, and through education, we can elevate the self-worth and collective esteem of our community. We invite you to join us, share your experiences, and collaborate with us in building a stronger, more informed community.
