Child and Spousal Support

Topics:
  • Family/DV

Attorneys from large law firms and in-house counsel at corporations who team up with law firm attorneys to represent Her Justice clients are welcome to attend our trainings. In-house counsel should contact us in advance of registering for a training so that we can discuss your participation in our program .

Attorneys will be trained to represent Her Justice-referred clients in child and spousal support proceedings in Family Court. Procedural and substantive aspects will be discussed in detail. Training manuals and sample documents will be provided at the training.

A child and/or spousal support case will be assigned at the training or shortly thereafter. Attorneys are expected to commit to taking a pro bono case either individually or as part of a team. Experienced Her Justice staff attorneys mentor and consult with pro bono teams throughout the course of representation.

The assigned pro bono case will require one or more court appearances.
