The Bronx Defenders 2025 Fall Training Team

Bronx, United States The Bronx Defenders Full time
Overview

The Bronx Defenders (BxD) an innovative, progressive, holistic indigent defense office in the South Bronx seeks passionate law graduates and entry-level attorneys with a commitment to public defense to join our Family Defense, Criminal Defense, Immigration and Civil Action Practices beginning Fall 2025.

The Bronx Defenders is a public defender non-profit that is radically transforming how low-income people in the Bronx are represented in the legal system, and, in doing so, is transforming the system itself. BxD seeks thoughtful, creative individuals with a strong commitment to social justice to join our dynamic and diverse staff. Our staff of over 400 includes interdisciplinary teams made up of criminal, civil, immigration, and family defense attorneys, as well as social workers, benefits specialists, legal advocates, parent advocates, investigators, and team administrators, who collaborate to provide holistic advocacy to address the causes and consequences of legal system involvement. Through this integrated team-based structure, we have developed a groundbreaking, nationally recognized model of representation called holistic defense that achieves better outcomes for the people we represent.

Each year, we defend nearly 20,000 low-income Bronx residents in criminal, civil, family, and immigration cases, and reach thousands more through our community intake, youth mentoring, and outreach programs. Through impact litigation, policy advocacy, and community organizing, we push for systemic change at the local, state, and national levels. We partner with the people we represent and communities we work to launch innovative initiatives designed to bring about real and lasting change.

Training Team

Training Team attorneys participate in several weeks of intensive, interdisciplinary training to learn about all aspects of holistic representation, including litigation skills and client and community engagement through an anti-oppressive lens that analyzes how the legal system impacts marginalized communities and the community we work with. Following this training period, staff participate in trainings to sharpen their advocacy skills, raise their cultural consciousness, and enhance their collaboration with colleagues and the people we represent. For the 2025 Training Team, BxD will be hiring law graduates and attorneys to join the Criminal Defense, Family Defense, Immigration and Civil Action Practices. More information regarding the specific practice areas can be found below.

Responsibilities

Civil Action Practice (CAP)

The Civil Action Practice (CAP), a team of over 40 staff members, provides comprehensive legal services to the people we represent and their families by fully integrating civil representation with our criminal, immigration, and family defense practices. Our goal is to minimize the severe and often unforeseen fallout from legal system involvement and facilitate the seamless reintegration of the people we represent into their communities.

Our Civil Action Practice attorneys and legal advocates represent clients in every forum in New York City administrative, state, and federal and provide comprehensive representation to assist people in overcoming civil legal barriers to housing, eviction, employment, and public benefits, as well as addressing instances of police misconduct, criminal record errors, and civil forfeiture.

Criminal Defense Practice

The Criminal Defense Practice (CDP) consists of over 150 staff members who provide comprehensive defense representation to people in the Bronx facing police and criminal legal system involvement. Through a client-centered approach, our CDP teams strive to gain a deeper understanding of the circumstances and priorities of the people we represent. Armed with that understanding, we fight for the people we represent by employing effective case strategy and raising individualized, persuasive arguments in mitigation, negotiations, and litigation.

Responsibilities (CDP)

  • Zealously advocate for individuals facing criminal charges in Bronx, as well as related administrative and civil proceedings such as Department of Motor Vehicle hearings

Family Defense Practice

Our Family Defense Practice, which consists of more than 70 staff members, is at the forefront of a movement to provide holistic representation to parents in the Bronx while creating long-term solutions for the reunification and stability of families. Family Defense Practice Attorneys primarily litigate abuse and neglect cases, but occasionally appear in concurrent matters including custody, visitation, and termination of parental rights.

Responsibilities (FDP)

  • Zealously advocate for parents facing child protective proceedings in Bronx Family Court and concurrent matters including custody, visitation, paternity, family offense, and termination of parental rights cases

Immigration Practice

Our immigration teams work to avoid and mitigate negative immigration consequences that may arise from criminal and family court cases. Our Immigration staff represent people in deportation proceedings in both detained and non-detained settings, provide affirmative immigration services, and pursue community-based litigation and advocacy aimed at transforming racist anti-immigrant local, state, and federal laws and policy.
