What do they do? I have asked for support several times as a legally disabled person living below poverty. I’m trying to exercise my rights. They always say they don’t have the time or resources. I see 0 reviewers of them helping low income people! And it’s the only low income legal help for the county!

This place is to help low income people with civil and family legal matters, how ever they go by a person's gross income. Now think about this, single people paying child support to not take home as much as their gross income suggests. My income drops by over $800 per month because of child support. It seems this place is set up to be able to reject the people that need help the most, people that after child support have just enough to live on. They like me can't squeeze out enough to hire a lawyer, so I am slowly circling the drain of financial ruin. now for energy and housing assistance child support is factored in, but not legal help. Who are these people really helping?
