The Legal Aid Board will grant you a certificate for legal aid if in the Board's opinion:\n\nyou have passed the merits test and the means test set \nyou have as a matter of law reasonable grounds for instituting, defending or being a party to the proceedings for which legal aid is sought \nyou are reasonably likely to be successful in the proceedings \nthe proceedings for which legal aid is sought are the most satisfactory means of achieving the result sought by you \nhaving regard to all the circumstances (including the probable cost to the Board, measured against the likely benefit to you), it is reasonable to grant the application. \nyour case does not fall within the excluded areas. \nIf the proceedings concern the welfare of a child including custody or access, factors 3 and 5 will not apply.\n\nAnother type of publicly funded help at court consists of the services of an interpreter where the client is unable to express himself adequately in English.  Sign interpreters are available for deaf and dumb clients and any Welsh speaker within the Principality of Wales, irrespective of ability to speak English or not, is entitled to the services of a Welsh-English interpreter.

The old saying 'get it in writing' will probably apply here.  Otherwise, a judge will just view it as hearsay.\n\nSo, if it wasn't in writing, you will have a hard time proving a case about the refusal part, which will open the door to collect the past support.

You need a solicitor's advice - it will be a lot safer than trying to understand the legal complexities yourself from a website.  Also, if any sort of enforcement is required, you will need the legal help anyway.

You may call the Bar Association or lawyers offices in your area. They do give bits of free advice. It seems that if you write it on paper and have it notetorized, that would work. It is probably more simple than you think

I am unsure where you should look for financinng or assistance, but please make sure that you and your friend don't get taken by some scumbag who tells you he's trying to help, then steals the idea.  I have heard that, that type of thing happens alot with people and patent companies and the like.  Just be careful who you trust, ESPECIALLY if you find them on the internet.\n\nMaybe you should look into the TV Program "American Inventor" website if they have one?  Just a thought though. Sorry I couldn't better assist you.\n\nGood Luck.

The first place to start looking for funding is your local hispanic chamber of commerce.  The commerce is comprised of business owners, I'm certain some of the members will be interested in donating time or money.  Before approaching the chamber I would compile relevant documents such as financial reports, pro-forma...etc. regarding this project.  I would also be prepared to pitch your organization.

Probably best to seek legal advice (lawyer).

The CAB are a good place to start if it's a straightforward dispute, but bear in mind that free advice is worth exactly that - nothing.  There are no cheap specialists in anything , especially employment law.  You get what you pay for. There are however, solictors who give good value.  They will not charge £200 ph and will agree all fees in advance and will check with you before incurring any fees and can agree fixed rates.  The truth is that in the event of a big dispute, having a solictors firm behind you gives you clout.  It may work out less expensive in the long run.

Your State's Federal offices should be able to point you in the right direction. You may also want to consult an attorney before doing this as a non-profit is extremely complex to implement and maintain

In this situation you could use your attorney.

I would check on line first to see if there were any thing there for free to at least help out some.  Sometimes there are clinics that will work with you on payments as well.

It's actually up to the client to make the decision, not the attorney. The attoney advises the client (here defendant) but the client makes the call.\n\nA jury trial is allowed in civil matters in most states. And guaranteed for federal civil trials under the 7th Amendment. There are different ways to argue the case before a judge or a jury, and the defendant here thinks they'll have better luck before a jury. That's their right.

Make an appointment with an attorney - preferably someone who specializes in this kind of thing.
