legal help

i need my child support

I just need to be able to get my child support that is owed to me.  I supposedly make too much money for the state or any reduced rate legal programs to help me, but I have 4 children to support and I don't have the ability to pay a big retainer fee.  I am at my wits end. My ex-husband owes me over $30,000 in back support and he runs around care free all the time while I have to suffer.  I don't know what to do.  I can't even afford to buy my kids coats and mittens this year.  Everything is just closing in so fast.  I feel hopeless.

Don't get me wrong, I am not trying to get a handout, just some kind of help so I know what to do...

I desperately need a lawyer or money to hire one

My children were taken from me, after I asked for more child support.My ex husband makes alot of money,we were just keeping our heads above water.Instead of paying more child support  he hired a big shot attorney and he took me for custody.He lived out of state and barely bothered with the kids for 10 years.He went to court and paid my oldest son to lie about me.I have been proving my innocence for over a year,had a crappy lawyer and am completely tapped out of money.I need help to get my kids back.They are miserable and want to come home.i am so lost without them.Im a good person and a hard worker.I have just lost so much in the last couple years,(a unisured house fire, my oldest son totaling 2 of my cars,and another losing lawsuit ,my health and my kids.)They were all I had left.This has left me totally maxed out.I have no resources left to retain an other attorney.PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To whom it may concern,  My name is Mrs Angela Thomas of Omaha, Ne. I need help with financial support to obtain a attorney in Tyler, Texas. My husband Clyde thomas was taken away from Omaha on Dec 03,2007 by His sister and two brothers without my or my husbands consent.  They would not communicate with me to to tell me where he is at or how to get in contact with me.  My attorneys here say that they can't help me here and that I need an attorney in Tyler, Texas to help me.  My husband has lived here for 40 years, and we have known each other for 38 years and dated for 8 of those years, and reunited in 2005 and he ask me to marry him in 2006 and we were married June 02, 2007.  His sister and brother did attend the wedding and wecolming me into their family.  His sister did the invintations and the annoucements, and his brother was his best man and signed the marriage license.  Clyde has Parkinson's and have been diagnose with mild dementia on Sep 26, 2007.  His sister kept pressuring him into moving back to Texas, and he did not want to be told against his will to go back.  She had put a power of attorney in force and took him and we have not talk to each other since Dec 3,2007.  He was worried that someone would take me way from him, but he never thought his family would take him from me.  The reason why she is trying to push me out is because she gets 50% of all his insurance and anuities and his pension and his children recieve the other 50%.  When Clyde told his family that we were getting married two of his sibilings told him that I would receive half if something should happen to him and they receive nothing.  Clyde and I did not marry for money, we married each other for companionship, support of each other and we are in love with each other.  Clyde said that they are just waiting for him to die to get there hands on his money.  I told him it is his money, he put his self in school and no one have any right to his money not even me, and he can give it to charity if he wants because I am not interested in his money, I have worked all my life, and supported myself, but now I am on disability because of Stenooisi of the spine and Spondyolitis and Scoliosis of my spine, and I was told to have back surgery soon or I will never be able to walk and be in a wheel chair for the rest of my life, I can't get it right now because of this mess.  Now, I received court documents where she is trying to get permanent Guardianship of him, and I do not have the money to get an attorney in Texas and to travel there to go to court.  I just Lost my brother who was my best man and gave me away at my wedding.  He died of an unepected death, I was disgnated by my family to make the funeral arrangements.  He died on Nov 17, 2007 and buried on Nov 27, 2007.  My husband was in the hospital at the time, and I had taken care of him while I was taking care of the funeral arrangements.  I need help and I need to have some one to represent me at the custody hearing so the court will know what had happen and bring my husband back to his home.  All of his belongings his home cars trike clothes are here.  She is forcing me out of our home, she needs to be stopped.  I am 54 and my husband is 65. She closed out our credit card and transfered his account to Texas, which she has cut off my fiances, so now all I have for income is 658 a month from my disability. court is in ten days and I need help.  I have alway helped other people who where in a financial need when I had it, and now I need it and can't find a soul to help me.  If some one can help me with donation or even a small loan, it will be paid back in full.  You can contact me at; 402-612-1886, PO Box 111543, Omaha, Ne 68111 and by e-mail athomas68111@yahoo.com.

Sincerely very truely yours

Fraudulent agreement put us in deep poop!

I am the mother of three amazing children, ages 6, 2, and 4 months.  We recently moved from the Pittburgh area to the Richmond, VA area.  We purchased our first home, which is incredibly modest and needs lots of work.  We knew the house was a fixer-upper when we looked at it, but according to the inspection we would be able to handle everything ourselves.  We are both pretty handy and my husband has an amazing knack for learning how to fix things, so we weren't worried.  We've been slowly chipping away at things that need fixed like insulating and minor plumbing and roof work.  Its a slow project because of finances.  Anyway, my brother-in-law was helping us with our yard work when we discovered a wet spot in the dirt that would not dry, where we had dumped some dirt into a weed filled hole.  Keep in mind, this was during a major drout.  We decided to dig the spot up to see what was causing it.  We discovered a world of trouble.  The wetness was sewage.  Initially we thought maybe we damaged a pipe connecting the septic tank to the distribution box, then we discovered there was no distribution box!  Further more, there was no drainfield!  We had a septic designer and inspector check our property and he confirmed what we had found, he also confirmed that because of the layout of our property and a right of way through it, there was no way of putting one on our property.  At this point we are amazed that we have sewage running from our septic tank, through a concrete pipe, into a ditch onto my neighbors vacant property.  This was originally all one family's property, and apparently that's when this set up was done. 

This leads me to the legal issue that has now been created.  When we agreed to purchase this house, we and the seller signed a purchase agreement.  That agreement stated that the seller had the septic tank inspected and pumped, the distribution box inspected and the drainfield inspected.  Now, we had a completely Full septic tank, no distribution box and no drainfield.  Obviously the seller commited some fraud here.  This fraud has put us in a situation where the county could condemn our house, and my family runs a serious risk of getting sick from having raw sewage in the back yard.  we have been pursuing this matter but have run out of options at the moment.  We need a lawyer to help us.  The realtor that sold it to us was also the owner.  We have made him aware of the situation and he keeps playing dumb.  I think he assumes that we are stupid first time home buyers and we aren't going to press the issue.  We have to though.  Because we can't put a drainfield on our property, we have to make a deal with the owner of the other property to have an easement to put it on.  Between that and the tens of thousands it will cost to have it designed and builtwe are in serious trouble!  I think the seller should lose his lisence and have to pay minimally to put the system in  because of his fraudulant behavior.  Legal help is the biggest thing we need right now.I haven't been able to find anyone who will take us on pro bono.  We can't afford to pay a lawyer because I just had to quit my job .  It was pointless for me to work when all I was doing was paying someone else to raise my kids and clearing little more than that. Now I can spend time with my children and our income isn't affected.  This also allows me to put more time into fixing this situation. It was very hard to work on as a retail manager putting in ridiculous hours.  Anyway, I welcome advice or assistance in any way.  We have been struggling financially since before we moved here and thought we were entering a better situation when we bought this house.  Boy, were we wrong!  I would just like to know that I'm not going to lose our house because of using our mortgage money to pay a lawyer, we have a hard enough time making the payments as it is.  Thank you for reading this!
