A: It is best to contact an attorney. Contact Atlanta Legal Aid or Georgia Legal Services to determine if you qualify for their services. They offer legal representation at no cost to individuals with low or no income.

If you do not qualify for their services, feel free to contact us. We will be glad to discuss your options.

I wish you well.
