Volunteer
Pro bono representation

Since 1993, major law firms have encouraged their lawyers to volunteer to assist clients referred by inMotion . Because of their support and involvement in our mission, thousands of women in New York City unable to hire counsel have gained life-altering legal outcomes for themselves and their children.

Our practice areas
InMotion assists women with these types of matrimonial, family and immigration law matters:
  • Divorce, both uncontested and contested, in Supreme Court
  • Orders of protection in Family Court
  • Child custody and visitation in Family Court
  • Child support in Family Court
  • Spousal support and maintenance in Family Court
  • Petitions for legal residency

Continuing legal education 
InMotion offers free, CLE-accredited, live trainings throughout the year in matrimonial, family and immigration law. Training sessions include a special focus on both the impact of domestic violence on the lives of survivors and the challenges faced by immigrants.

Upon completing a training seminar, attorneys commit to taking a pro bono case, either individually or as part of a team of two or more attorneys. Detailed practice manuals and sample documents are provided. Our experienced staff attorneys are on hand to answer questions and review documents throughout each inMotion case. Training videos are available for individuals who are unable to attend one of our scheduled training sessions. Learn more.
