Detroit, MI asked in Family Law, Child Custody and Child Support for Ohio

Q: I know this is asking for a miracle. Are there any pro bono or low cost lawyers in Columbus Ohio for Father's Rights?

I have had both of my children ripped from underneath me. I pay child support for one and they left the state and I have no clue where she is. My son had an incident last year with his mother where children services were called on her and nothing was done and now she has moved out of state. I feel so lost and defeated and do not know what to do next. I have money but not thousands and thousands of dollars for retainers. I am hoping someone can see this and hear my story and at the least guide me in the right direction. Thank you.
