Who We Are
Self Help Centers can assist with filling out paperwork and understanding court processes. However, the staff at these centers do not give legal advice or provide legal representation. This is because they are open to everyone in a community and must be able to provide help to both parties in a court case. Self Help Centers are a great option for people who are representing themselves in court or when they aren't eligible for legal aid.

| Description of Services | A Family Law Facilitator is an attorney appointed by the Court to assist parents in resolving child support, and health insurance issues that arise when the parents separate. Although the Facilitator can help everyone, priority is given to those parents who can not afford to hire an attorney. If the Facilitator has time, they can help with other family law problems the parents may have. The Facilitator CAN: explain the Court process to you, mediate disputes about child custody and spousal support, help you prepare for Court, prepare Court Orders after your hearing, refer you to the District Attorney's Family Support Division and other community resources, answer other family law questions that you may have and provide you with information on how to handle the important issues of child support, spousal support, paternity, custody and visitation. The Facilitator CANNOT: represent you in Court or give you legal advise regarding your particular case. |
