You can file on your own. It s called quot;Pro Sequot;. However, before you do, you have to ask yourself: Can I remove my emotional feelings about the situation and present a concise, logical argument? Do I have access to enough legal information, and do I know how to USE that information correctly? As a mother, I understand your passion, and I sympathize with you. However, quot;any man who represents himself has a fool for an attorney.quot; If you have a valid complaint, legal aid will be able to help you much more effectively than you will be able to help yourself.
You just file pro-se.
if you don t have an attorney, you don t have a chance. it sucks, but in domestic court the judge will rarely listen to someone doing it pro se . I wnet and the attorney for the ex was getting everything she wanted. I finally got an attorney and the judge ruled she owed me in over payment of support (i still payed more for legal fees) You re damned if you don t and screwed if you do....
Many couthouses offer quot;pro sequot; (represent yourself) divisions for specific legal issues, such as divorce, custody, child support. The appropriate forms are provided and the staff can clarify terminology and answer questions about procedure. These services are free. Many states also offer pro bono (free) legal helplines which can give you direction: was this a breach of contract? Do I have a good case to go for an appeal of my social security disability denial? How do I file a tort claim against a state agency? My neighbor s cat ate my canary, what can I do? Your state s Bar Directory (often available online) may also include a rotating staff of volunteer attorneys, but remember that these groups select which cases they choose to take on. If your case involves suing a person or company for damages, most attorneys take these cases on for a % of the damages received, but they won t take a case they don t think they can win. If the amount is low, there may be a pro se small claims court in which you can represent yourself pretty comfortably (kind of like Judge Judy). States vary on the limits for small claims. If it s a discrimination issue, there are various national organizations like Legal Aid, ACLU, National Disability Rights Network, empowered under federal law to address these types of grievances. Google quot;legal representation for discrimination against persons who are _____quot; (fill in the blank: Arabic, deaf, bi-polar, over 70, Buddhist, etc.) Many law schools also operate Law Clinics staffed by law students which are low cost or free. Check at a law school nearby. Hope this helps. NOTE: If you are part of general group (battered women, native american, drunk driving victim,etc.) you can do a quot;Google searchquot;. You also get it for free (but never the best) if you can,t afford legalservice for criminal cases. Otherwise there is none. Any help will always be concluded with quot; but you should consult an attorneyquot;. Plus you will be a position of pleasing the free help, let alone pointing out anything about their service. That means I would be more concerned about keeping my legal service than my legal issues.

Hello friend. I don t think you can fight for physical custody without a lawyer. I can suggest you a good firm USALegalCare.com. They have the best lawyers. I had a great experience with them. Try once: http://www.usalegalcare.com/ All the best
You can, but I wouldn t recommend it. First, lawyers are more knowledgeable about the legal syatem and how it works, so they can make better arguments. Secondly, because you are to emotionally involved with the case, you may not be in a postion to see things objectively, which may end up hurting your case. Chances are when you plea your side of the case, your arguments will be based on emotion and not necessarily facts. In short, remember this: he/she who has themself for an attorney has a fool for a client...
