Queens Defenders fights for justice every day, for every client.  

Our lawyers, social workers, and program staff work in family court, criminal court, immigration court, youth justice court, and in libraries and schools across the borough to safeguard constitutional rights and liberties.
¬
We do this so that all individuals—regardless of income, gender, race, age, sexual orientation, or immigration status—can pursue their aspirations and contribute positively to society.
