Karen F Winner
Class of 1974
Ms. Winner earned a name for herself as a nationally acclaimed book author of Divorced From Justice: The Abuse of Women and Children by Divorce Lawyers and Judges. Published in 1996 by Regan Books/Harper Collins, the book exposed the inner workings of the divorce court industry. The book was based in part on a report she wrote while working as a policy analyst with the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs. (See gooddivorcebadddivorce.com for more on this work.) Her style of watchdog journalism on matters of public concern resulted in significant reforms in New York, California, and South Carolina.
Ms. Winner is the original author of the Statement of Client Rights, (New York's Court Rules, 22 NYCRR 1210.1) which can be seen by going to the Statement of Rights at gooddivorcebaddivorce.com.
On the need for transparency and government accountability in the nation's family courts, Ms. Winner has been quoted in or appeared on CNN, Court TV, Inside Edition, The Today Show, Geraldo, and McCalls Magazine , among other media outlets. Her articles on consumer and social justice issues were syndicated nationwide by American News Service through Knight-Ridder Newspapers.
Ms. Winner is licensed to practice law in the State of New York. She is also admitted to practice in federal court in New York.
