I need an attorney that will help with a contested divorce. I have one child and I do not have a job. This is a mental/physical abuse case and I need help. No one will return my calls or e-mail me back when they hear I have no job to pay them. Am I to just stay in this marriage till he kills me?

Certainly not. You should brouse your local library or book store and review publications on these types of proceedings. A divorce complaint format will vary between states and you are required to satisfy the requirements of the local and state court rules. I suggest that you visit a law library and read these requirements from the state court rule booklets. You may attempt to file on your own and request a waiver of the filing fees (the court clerk may have a form for you to submit). As a last suggestion, contact the closest law school and seek their assistance from a clinic. Law students are eager and willing to assist the general public without being concerned about costs and fees. Good luck

Contact your local county bar association and ask for a referral to their volunteer lawyer program or to be referred to an attorney who might be willing to handle your matter pro bono (for free). The Albany Bar Association website is http://www.albanycountybar.com/
I would start there. |
