About Queens County Family Court
Queens County Family Court is a court in the 11th Judicial District of the New York State Unified Court System. It hears matters involving children and families, including adoption, guardianship, foster care approval and review, juvenile delinquency and persons in need of supervision, family violence, child abuse and neglect, paternity and parentage, child support, and custody and parenting time. The Family Court cannot grant a divorce; only Supreme Court can do that.

A first-floor Help Center offers legal information, Do-It-Yourself petition filing, copies of petitions and orders, and no-appointment access to free 30-minute family law consultations with volunteer attorneys.
