How do I get a military lawyer like jag or whatever to represent me and my family in family court? Trial is April 11.

Hello! Thanks for using JustAnswer. My name is ***** ***** I am an attorney ready to answer your questions with top-quality service. Just a few quick things before we get started:

1. I'm sorry to hear you're having problems with your legal issue. I know it can be frustrating; however, we can get this resolved quickly;

2. Sadly, this website says I cannot represent customers, but I can certainly answer the questions you have!

Are you two disagreeing over something specific like custody/

Sure! You said you had trial on the 11th, correct?

Ok, thanks! What is the nature of this dispute? Are you two fighting over some specific of process.

Are you two fighting over some specific piece of property/

Understood! So how is she trying to run the house? What do you mean by that?

Oh ok, got it. So is she requesting something specific most recently? What is it they want to do now? This will dictate what you do next.

Ok, thanks!

So a few things to consider:

1. Sadly, JAG officers don't represent service members in court;

2. One thing to keep in mind is that the court relies on the best interests of the children standard. This means that the court will concern itself with which person involved will best care for the child's health, welfare, and education, whether there are issues of abuse, and the relationship of the child to the parties, The court will typically see through parties are looking to punish the other party. This also means that sometimes these things can get ugly because each party has to try to prove why they would be worthy of custody or visitation and why the other party may not. This will be helpful to always keep in mind;

3. The court has the final decision-making authority;

4. This will end eventually; and

5. You can find a family law attorney locally.

I don’t have any specific contacts; however, I can do the next best thing.

One thing I recommend is going through your state’s lawyer referral service (LRS). The LRS typically only lists experienced attorneys who have adequate staffing to assist people.

Yelp.com is a surprisingly good place to find lawyers.

You can check out find.lawyer.com - Lawyer.com Free Consultation Lawyer Form - JustAnswer

You can also find a lawyer on the Legal Services Corporation website. The LSC is an independent non-profit organization authorized by Congress in 1974 to help people find legal aid services (https://www.lsc.gov/what-legal-aid/find-legal-aid).

Sometimes, the local law schools can provide free legal assistance, too.

You can also return to this site and ask questions to me as you go through this process to keep your costs down.

Did you have any other questions for me today?

I hear you! So the hard part is that military discounts can be hard to come by, mostly because lawyers tend to be greedy.

My recommendation/ Try out those sites I recommended.

I'm so sorry to hear about your situation!

But never fear - about 80% of people in family court are self-represented.

Also, remember, this person's actions make them look worse and worse each time they go to court.

I hear you! I'm sorry to hear about that. I knew more about the case. If you'd like, you can always request a call for more specific answers.

So if you're texting like through your regular texting app on your phone or tablet, the system can't send a call request through there. You'd just have to go to justanswer.com and log on. There, you'll see our question thread, and you can see my call request there on the site itself.

Hello! I just wanted to check in to see if you had any follow-up questions for me about this today.

So I haven't heard from you in a while, but that's ok!
