Legal Information for Families Today
Legal Information for Families Today (LIFT) is a non-profit organization that provides legal information and emotional support to unrepresented litigants so that they can successfully self-advocate in New York State and City Family Courts.
LIFT was launched in 1996, when two lawyers established “go-to” locations in New York City’s Family Courts that provided on-the-spot help and legal information for vulnerable families struggling to make their way through the City’s complex Family Court system. Before LIFT, there was no source of information or guidance for families in the City’s Family Courts, and the type of on-the-spot service LIFT offered was immediately in-demand and has served as the foundation for their programmatic growth throughout the organization’s history.〔(Mission and History of LIFT ).〕
==Community Need==
The majority of New Yorkers embroiled in the Family Courts have no legal representation as they attempt to navigate a complex, under-resourced, and over-crowded bureaucracy. In this environment, without the tools necessary to seek resolution to their problems – tools such as knowledge of their legal rights or basic court procedure – families are all too often unable to access justice.
