North Las Vegas, NV asked in Family Law and Child Custody for Nevada

Q: Opposition reasons, and or codes for denial of attorney costs? Las Vegas , NV

Other party has requested attorney fees to be awarded, and we are not even to trial yet. I have offered multiple times to mediate. They want me to pay for both this case and a different case for mother and father. (Mine is 3rd party.) I do not have income, as I have just been released from workers comp but waiting to have the clearance form for work to be able to return. With that being said, I cannot afford my own bills and having family help me. How can I request the denial of said attorney fees as that would literally take away from my children, and my bills, if I did have income but I don’t. I do receive Medicaid, and food stamps.
