Legal Question in Family Law in New York

This may be a long shot, but it is definitely worth a try..

Is it possible to finance a family law attorney?

I am in the process of a custody battle and it seems that I may need legal representation soon.

At the moment, I do not have the full 3k+ for the retainer especially because I have monthly visits that are quite costly considering that the children reside in NY and I am in FL.

I was expecting to be able to pay a attorney once I got my taxes in 2011, but did not anticipate that I would need one sooner (considering the situation)

I would be willing to post date a check, have the monthly contributions come directly from my husbands pay (Active Duty Military)

If there are attorney's out there that do this, please let me know.

And I apologize if this may seem like a extreme request or question.

Thank you,

Jazmine

It's not an extreme request. Depending upon where the case is located, I'd certainly consider it.

I also take credit cards via Paypal...

Not all lawyers require $3K up front. I may be able to work with you for half that amount. I'd need to know where the case will be heard. Contact me for more details.
