Re: free waiver and attorneys
When you ask for a waiver, you don't pay a fee when filing a complaint, and the court usually decides with in 10 days whether to grant a waiver or not. If they do, then no further action on your side is necessary. If they don't, you have to pay the filing feel within the set period of time.
