Services
Adoption Services
LevittQuinns Adoption Project provides free and sliding-scale legal assistance for families seeking to adopt children outside the foster care system. Our team handles court filings, parental rights termination, and finalization of adoptions, prioritizing cases where biological parents cannot care for children. Since 2002, weve finalized over 2,000 adoptions, preventing children from entering state custody while ensuring stable, loving homes.
Child Support
We assist low-income clients in establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support orders. Our services include court document preparation, mediation coaching, and representation in high-conflict cases. By balancing financial realities for both parents, we ensure children receive necessary resources while minimizing family discord through early intervention and legal education.
Domestic Abuse
Levitt & Quinn Family Law Center offers free legal aid to victims of domestic violence, including emergency restraining orders, custody arrangements, and safe housing advocacy. Our attorneys collaborate with social services to address immediate safety needs while navigating complex family court procedures. We prioritize cases where abuse threatens childrens well-being, providing holistic support to break cycles of violence.
Veterans Legal Aid
The Veterans Project resolves family law barriers preventing veterans from securing housing and employment. We address child support arrears, custody disputes, and divorce proceedings via in-person or virtual consultations. By partnering with VA resources, we help veterans transition from dependency to self-sufficiency, focusing on administrative solutions to reduce court burdens.
Modest Means Project
This program serves clients earning too much for traditional legal aid but unable to afford private counsel. Fees are calculated based on income and family size using federal poverty guidelines. Services include limited-scope representation for divorce, custody, and support cases, ensuring equitable access to justice for working-class families across Los Angeles County.
