A Bit more info needed ! How are they getting legal aid under false pretence ? I can tell you the legal aid board are very very thorough when they give legal aid ! if you can give more details of the situation i may be able to explain it .      \nWhatever happened to innocent till proven guilty ? you guy`s have already concluded that this person is a cheat without any proof what so ever ! Any body can get legal aid weather your working or not ! was`nt so long ago that a footballer who was on £50,000 a WEEK got awarded legal aid ! we need to see the proof that they are a cheat in the first place so a bit more info please !

From what it sounds like yeah you defenitely have a case. i think just threatening them that you'll go to court with it might work. if not try getting free lawyer advice.\nhttp://www.prepaidlegal.com/ check ut this site. It's cheap and my family uses their services. they've been quite good so far

Sorry to hear about this situation. There are many cases like this out there and I hope that you friend get the help that she is in need of. The reason that she is facing charges by the state is because husband(bastard) filed charges first and he made it seems like self defense against her. Check in your area for a legal aide lawyer or counsel for help not only for the case but for help for her. Tell your friend to keep praying, God is going to turn it around.

It sounds to me like a good idea would be to find a lawyer that will either take on your cause as charity or maybe let you work for him to pay off the charges incurred while he helps you get your papers.

Sure, you could file a civil suit.  If they've been convicted of the crime, you stand a better chance of winning the civil suit.

GET A LAWYER AND KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT UNTIL YOU'VE TALKED TO HIM OR HER THEN FOLLOW THEIR ADVICE.\n\nReally you need a lawyer badly, you won't believe how fast you can dig yourself a hole. The police are experts at asking question, and they'll grab on to anything you say and use it against you, even if you didn't do anything. I can point to many cases where this happened.\n\nSo don't say anything until you've talked to your lawyer.\n\nSTOP READING CALL A LAWYER NOW.

The best thing you can do is get a hold of an attorney who defends criminal cases and get this over with. If you can not afford one then it is best to turn yourself in and if the police want to question you on the matter, say nothing, just tell them you want to speak to a lawyer. An attorney will be appointed for you if you can not afford one.\n\nThere is always the chance you can get out of it, but not without a lawyer and it will go harder on you if the police catch up with you first.

Get a badge number, GO to the station,and file a report for harrassment.  IF they do not investigate it, THEN get a lawyer.  I have had a friend in this situation before and they got it solved by saying "Laywer"

Just call the police a couple times.  That'll do it!  The judge will give them the option of help or jail.

If you contact the Law Society and make a complaint through there first, they may be able to help, or at least point you in the direction of someone who can!

Other than help them get the best lawyer you can afford, I don't really know.\n\nIf they are in jail, a good lawyer might be more likely to get them out on bail.  They are more likely to rebut the prosecution's case or to come up with evidence to exonerate this person.\n\nIf their bail is too high for them to be released, perhaps you could help with securing a bond.  It all depends on how much you can or want to help.

Ask a lawyer about what you can do.

Document everything.  Talk to a lawyer, you may have a case on your hands.  Save any written correspondence.   Definitely fight back. \nMost times a place like that isn't worth sticking around for, but they should be made to pay for their treatment. So:\n\n1. Build a case\n2. Talk to a lawyer.\n3. Find another job.\n4. sue.
