Justice for Kids Advocates for Vulnerable Children Through Specialized Legal Practice and Technology

Justice for Kids, a division of Kelley Kronenberg, represents a specialized legal practice dedicated to advocating for children who have suffered harm within systems designed to protect them. Co-founded by Justin Grosz alongside Howard Talenfeld and Stacie Schmerling, the practice focuses exclusively on cases involving physical and sexual abuse in foster care, negligence, civil rights violations, and catastrophic injuries affecting vulnerable youth.

The organization serves children harmed in various settings including foster homes, group homes, residential treatment facilities, schools, and daycare centers. According to Grosz, the most common issue facing these children is systemic failure, where protection systems fail due to bad actors, poor policy implementation, negligence, or civil rights violations. The practice works through guardians, court-appointed attorneys, and family members to provide legal representation for these victims.

Justice for Kids employs innovative technological approaches to enhance case presentation. Recently, the practice utilized 3D anatomical animations created with medical experts to demonstrate injuries from persistent physical abuse. This technology, as described by Grosz, helps jurors visualize and understand complex medical evidence more effectively than traditional records or photographs. The approach recently contributed to a successful settlement that secured a better future for a client.

The practice's mission extends beyond individual cases to driving broader systemic change. By securing substantial damage awards and advocating for legislative and judicial reforms, Justice for Kids aims to safeguard thousands of children from similar harm. The organization represents a growing focus within legal circles on addressing systemic failures in child welfare systems and ensuring accountability for institutions responsible for protecting vulnerable children.
