Do you know any pro bono lawyers that could help me? I've tried to get assistance with the free lawyer service here in the Austin area but no one seems to care about family law --they want people who are seeking divorces from abusive spouses or people who've broken the law. I can not afford to put down a real retainer at this point. If you or anyone on here could direct me to a law firm that is willing to really help me out that would be awesome. However, I know this is just a forum to give free advice not service.
I know that this kind of harassment and nonsense that I will forever see if I don't do something now. We haven't been divorced for more than a year and a half now and he's already tried to get me charged with "assault" (to which I had the charges dropped due to his lack of evidence and having prior issues with him that the police were aware of). He has no regard for my financial issues -- I had to file for bankruptcy due to him maxing out every credit card under my name, leaving me loans that we applied for together but under my name and using my car and racking up over $1200 in Texas Toll fees. I am working full time and even over time to make my bills and pay for extra expenditures (Christmas gifts, birthday gifts, etc).
I hate the idea of begging but not being knowledgeable of the resources out there, I am pretty much just keeping my head above water --barely.
