Queens Defenders represents people who have been charged with a crime in Queens and cannot afford to hire a lawyer, and those facing eviction in Queens Housing Court who are eligible for free representation. Queens Defenders lawyers are usually assigned to clients by the Court. We also provide services to people who visit one of our Outreach Centers.

Our team members connect clients to resources and alternatives to incarceration, educate adults and adolescents about their legal rights, provide prevention and mentoring programs for youth, and reduce the impact of a criminal record on employment, housing, education, and public benefits.
