…Providing efficient and expeditious service to our citizens
Westchester Family Court operates at three courthouse locations within the county. This provides easy accessibility to the citizens of Westchester County.

The Family Court hears and determines most legal issues involving children and families. In New York State, Family Court jurisdiction extends to matters involving: child custody and visitation; adoptions and guardianship; juvenile delinquency; persons in need of supervision (PINS); child neglect and abuse; monetary support for children, spouses and exspouses; determination of paternity; and domestic violence between family members.

Proceedings involving separation, annulment, or divorce are not handled by the Family Court and must be brought before the Supreme Court.
