Description

DSS’ Office of Civil Justice (OCJ) and the Mayor’s Office to End Domestic and Gender-Based Violence (ENDGBV) will jointly operate a program to provide core civil legal services at the City’s five (5) New York City Family Justice Centers (FJC). The NYC Family Justice Centers provide free and confidential services to survivors of domestic and gender-based violence and their children regardless of their language capacity, immigration status, income, gender identity or sexual orientation. The goal of the FJC Family Law Legal Services program is to operate a trauma-informed, collaborative and comprehensive legal services program for survivors of domestic and gender-based violence seeking legal help from the FJCs in the area of family law, including but not limited to matrimonial law (including both contested and uncontested divorce), parental rights including custody and visitation, and child and spousal support issues. Providing survivors with the full spectrum of family law legal services including legal screening and advice, legal advice and ongoing consultation, support for self-represented FJC clients with filing pro se petitions and legal representation in court is key to their safety planning and greatly informs their ability to make decisions regarding their safety and stability.
