| WHO WE ARE |
The Domestic Violence Law Project ("DVLP") was established by Safe Horizon in 1991. Since its inception, DVLP has provided high-quality legal advocacy and representation to thousands of low-income and indigent victims of domestic violence in family justice proceedings such as order of protection, custody, support, and divorce proceedings; DVLP also advocates for clients within the criminal justice system.
DVLP operates a legal intake line that provides information, referrals, and assistance to victims of domestic violence. DVLP attorneys receive referrals for representation from the citywide domestic violence hotline, district attorneys, family court and integrated domestic violence court judges and from community groups throughout the five boroughs.
