Q: I am currently involved in a bitter divorce/custody battle. My Ex is not paying his court ordered child support/care, he pays me what he likes and it's not enough, plus he owes me $7,474 in back pay. I am already in front of a Supreme Court Judge but my Ex is deliberately dragging out the divorce and fighting me every step of the way to claim joint legal custody of our son. He has no stable residence or job, no money and has supervised visits with our son. I have loaned money for my legal expenses but we are a year down the line and I can't afford my Lawyer any more. I need to find another cheaper Lawyer who is an expert in family matters to help me through the custody trial and I need assistance now with filing a motion for unpaid child support/care. Please advise on what to do. Thanks.
A: David's Answer: If you qualify, you may ask the Judge to appoint you counsel on the custody/visitation issues. Otherwise, I encourage you to shop around - many attorney in the outer boroughs (Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn) still practice in Manhattan & are usually cheaper in comparison to Manhattan attorneys. -- David Bliven, Bronx Child Custody attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
