Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

How do I get legal help?
Should worst come to worst, I'll need legal counsel at the divorce to protect my rights. I can't afford legal counsel because I gave up my career to support my wife's schooling and career dreams. I'm jobless and broke.

How do I go about getting legal counsel to protect my rights when I'm in a financial position like this?

As of right now, my wife ''says'' she doesn't want me paying child support. Forgive me for not trusting her. I don't want to walk into the divorce court blindly trusting her to keep her word (as I have for the last 10 years) and then have her lawyer walk all over me.

Any ideas?

Thanks

If you have no money and your wife controls all the money, she can be ordered to pay your legal fees.

I highly recommend Pat Bushman who is also on this website. Tell her that FRAN sent you! Her phone number is 713.807.9405.

Good luck!

I doubt that Lone Star Legal Aid will assist you but you can call them too.
