They provide Excellent service to the Community. When you enter you are greeted by front desk staff who direct you to the appropriate person to see. There is an eating area, a Library (an unexpected treat), a place to relax and unwind, children's area and altogether a relaxing atmosphere and great services.

This is the best place to go and ask for assistance in legal matters. I had a case at the family court building, even though my case was 3yrs long, but i stood strong, i went through 3 lawyers all females. My 3rd lawyer was the best, she stood by me and fought for me. I won my case due to showing ability to withstand obstacles and pressure in life. I love my lawyer and i have her number, and we still talk and i go and visit them. And if i need anything their always there to help. I would recommend any body to go.

They lie to the people,who they are supposed to defend, they really don't, do the work, they need to, to prove the case. Even when it's handed to them!. And they throw it from one lawer to the next, to the next and so on. Not a, very professional setting.
I was truly disappointed with the service.

They never helped me .They let my Children get hurt wrongfully by not defending them and I in a false accusation case .They knew that I didn't get a fair chance by misconduct and bias by legal proffesionals in the courtroom of Valerie Pels , illegal misconduct drawn out case non referrals and a family left to deal with the trauma of going through such an ordeal .Non forced compliance of children's services advocates and foster care services.

Very attentive, thank you. I suggest to those who call, that they have patience, since in general, they transfer you from one extension to another, depending on whether you request the service in English or Spanish. I also suggest that you have at hand the data related to the case that you are going to deal with. If I give you a little advice that they gave me and that is to be cautious when any institution wants you to give them your social number, as a precaution of plane that is sacred. The Bronx Defenders is a great help. Thanks to all the staff.

My son got into some trouble at school and he needed an attorney to protect him. We were fortunate to have Attorney Ms. Crystal Baker-Burr represent our son. Dad and I are so grateful to have had her fight for our son.
She also took the time to get to know him and us. She was not only made a difficult time easier for us without her help things could have turned out poorly for our son.
I highly recommend Bronx Defenders.

About The Bronx Defenders

The Bronx Defenders: Providing Innovative and Client-Centered Legal Services

The Bronx Defenders is a non-profit organization that provides innovative, holistic, and client-centered legal services to indigent people of the Bronx. The organization was founded in 1997 by Robin Steinberg, who saw the need for a more comprehensive approach to legal representation for low-income individuals.

Since its inception, The Bronx Defenders has been committed to providing high-quality legal services that are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. The organization's team of attorneys, social workers, and advocates work together to provide a range of services including criminal defense, family defense, civil legal services, social work support and advocacy.

One of the key features of The Bronx Defenders' approach is its focus on holistic representation. This means that the organization's attorneys not only address their clients' immediate legal needs but also take into account their broader life circumstances. For example, if a client is facing criminal charges but also struggling with housing insecurity or substance abuse issues, their attorney will work with them to address these underlying issues as well.

Another important aspect of The Bronx Defenders' approach is its commitment to client-centered representation. This means that clients are actively involved in every step of their case and have input into how it is handled. Attorneys at The Bronx Defenders take time to listen carefully to their clients' concerns and goals so they can develop strategies that align with those priorities.

In addition to providing direct legal services, The Bronx Defenders also engages in policy advocacy aimed at addressing systemic issues that contribute to poverty and inequality in the criminal justice system. Through partnerships with other organizations and community members in the Bronx area they aim at creating long-lasting change within society.

Overall, The Bronx Defenders stands out as an innovative leader in providing high-quality legal services for low-income individuals who might otherwise be unable access justice due financial constraints or other barriers such as language or cultural differences . With its focus on holistic representation and client-centered approach it has become one of New York City's most respected public defender organizations over time.
