Love shouldn’t hurt.
The need has never been greater. Domestic Violence happens
everywhere. One in four women will be abused in her lifetime. Westchester County police respond to more than 12,000 incidents of domestic violence every year. Only a small percentage of complainants go to court. That means that many people don’t get the legal assistance they need. Their safety is in jeopardy. Our compassionate, experienced attorneys work hard to help our clients stay safe from abuse.
We provide free, specialized legal services.
Right at the courthouse where we’re needed.
Plus options, answers, and referrals.
Outreach, education, and leadership.
