Hundreds of times a year, a child’s life ends at the hands of an abusive parent, an entirely preventable tragedy. Far too often this happens because our legal system, for a variety of reasons, isn’t equipped to identify, understand and adjudicate cases where domestic violence and child abuse are present.
A childhood marked by trauma often means a future marked by depression, risky behaviors and continued victimization. Children are losing out – children are dying – it’s time to stop the problem NOW.
We welcome solo practitioners, small firms, large firms, law students, local businesses and private individuals to join Child Justice as we work to protect our most vulnerable children.
While our legal representation is limited to Maryland, we don’t stop there. Child Justice also:
- Court watches hearings and trials.
- Coordinates and signs on to amicus curiae briefs in state, federal and U.S. Supreme Court appeals.
- Supports attorneys in litigation by providing information, legal research or referrals to experts.
- Refers protective parents to community resources.
- Offers emotional support for the non-offending parents and/or relatives.
- Raises awareness regarding the gaps and failures of society's protection of children.
