I was in the process of getting a protective order and divorce from my narcissistic abusive husband. I made several trips to secure their legal representation. We discussed my case at 8pm the night before my case....I knew then this wasn't going to help. However, I showed up 1 hr earlier than my court time in hopes to cover more detail just to find out 30min before my case is to be heard that they will NOT be representing me after all. I was livid! Consequently, bc of this unprofessional and worthless organization, i lost my case. They are an organization that gets plenty of grant funds but do not uphold their purpose. They are extremely unprofessional, that's if you can get a hold of them. They don't answer the phone and they are in their office maybe 1hr out of the day. Don't waste your time with them, they did not provide any form of care or assistance. Ppl come to this place for fair representation and other resources for the sake of their family well being, They put their trust and hope in this place just to be nothing more than disappointed. This place deserves a -10, & should be renamed as House of Ruthless.

If you live in DC you have to go to Virginia Williams on Rhode island avenue first thing in the morning! To get into any shelter in DC you need a referral from Virginia Williams Family Resource Center.
