Q: So we're other than legal aide can we find a pro Bono lawyer for family law around Valdosta Georgia?
I am a grandma of a daughter whom got into trouble in Georgia. While my daughter was jail defax came in took her daughter out father's care they did contact her and put her in temporary custody but I also contacted them telling them I would take guardianship of her if anything happen and have my mother not more than thirty minutes away after one month they came and took and placed my grand daughter in foster with no contact to family. Now I tried legal aide I have contacted the governor and state representative for help they pute in contact with two places and I have still gotten no where with help. Last month they stripped the father of his rights ( they sent his letter to an old address in Georgia knowing his true address was out of state) now they plan to strip my daughter of hers in two weeks.
A: Unfortunately, there are not many options for pro bono attorneys for family law cases. There may be some agencies in your area that offer pro bono or low bono legal services.
Homer P Jordan IV agrees with this answer
A: Try contacting the state bar to see if they know of any pro bono attorneys in your area. If there are some in your area, they should be able to provide you their information. -Homer P. Jordan IV, Esq. 404-620-1558 HomerJordan.com
A: Even if you can't afford a retainer of an attorney to represent your interests in this matter, and an attorney certainly can help you, some attorneys offer consultations for a fee that will give you guidance as to what steps you may take without an attorney to represent you in court. Good luck.
