Congratulations to Bet Tzedek House of Justice on an Incredible Victory

Celebrating a victory for justice.

🎉 Our heartfelt congratulations to Bet Tzedek House of Justice on an incredible victory in a quiet title case that is a powerful reminder of the strength of justice and the resilience of the human spirit! 🎉

We are genuinely grateful to Bet Tzekek’s dedicated Impact and Homeowner Protection Teams and pro bono partner McDermott Will & Emery for their tireless efforts in securing a quiet title claim for Mr. Lopez, an 83-year-old widower. This significant milestone affirms his rightful ownership of his beloved home. It restores his sense of security and peace of mind during a challenging time.

This achievement highlights Bet Tzedek’s unwavering dedication to serving those who face discrimination and exploitation. It embodies the principle “Tzedek, tzedek, tirdof”—“justice, justice you shall pursue.” Through its comprehensive legal services, education, and advocacy efforts, Bet Tzedek empowers vulnerable individuals and families, providing them with the hope and stability they desperately need.

If you feel moved to support Bet Tzedek’s vital mission and future victories, please consider making a financial contribution or offering your time—visit https://bettzedek.org.

The term “quiet title” refers to a legal action that addresses property ownership disputes, ensuring that rightful owners like Mr. Lopez can find peace of mind in their homes. By tackling these challenges, we safeguard the integrity of property ownership for all.

👏 A warm and heartfelt thank you to everyone who played a role in this remarkable achievement. 👏
