What We Do
Child Justice is one of the few organizations solely dedicated to ensuring a child’s right to be legally PROTECTED from an abusive parent.
Make A Donation
Child Justice PROVIDES SUPPORT to children and their protective parents as they navigate the family court system. Studies show that accused or adjudicated batterers often seek (and receive) sole or joint custody in contested child custody and access cases. Our attorneys represent non-offending, protective parents in family law cases where the child (or children) have been neglected or physically, sexually, or emotionally abused, or who may have experienced domestic abuse.
Child Justice PROMOTES CHANGE through community outreach and education. Our team provides testimony to the Maryland General Assembly upon request of legislators and participates in Task Forces.
Child Justice court watches hearings and trials, coordinates and signs on to amicus curiae briefs in state, federal and U.S. Supreme Court appeals, and supports attorneys in litigation by providing information, legal research or referrals to experts.

Each year, family courts sentence 58,000 children to live with parents who are abusive, negligent or predatory. 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. Child Justice works with protective mothers, protective fathers, and their children to prevent these tragedies. Our number one priority is the safety of children.
Below are a few stories from the families Child Justice has helped. To protect the identity of our clients, names and/or details of their cases may have been changed.
