Re: child custody

Look the phone book for legal aid. If you are in Eastern Ky you might try Applachian Research and Defense Fund in Prestonburg. Also look under "Attorneys" or "Lawyers" in the phone book and see if there is a listing for a local bar association. There are attorneys out there who contribute part of their time in deserving cases. You might also call the Kentucky Bar Association in Frankfort.
