The Transtheoretical Model is an important theory for the study, evaluation, and intervention on change motivation behavior related to psychoactive substances including with people involved with Justice. The objective was to systematically review the literature of studies with the population involved judicially and that is profoundly related to the Transtheoric Model. We have researched in Medline, SciELO, Pepsic, and Web of Science databases that included publications from the last 16 years. Based on the literature found (17 articles), we can realize that this is still a less studied field, but with promising results. All over the world, this practice is used as a factor for resocialization. Brazil has emerged with studies on juvenile offenders, evaluating the motivation and motivational intervention. It suggests that more research is and that justice invests more in treatment and subsequent motivation for treatment.
