Free legal help for child support issues

The Salvation Army William Booth Legal Aid Clinic and the Legal Aid and Defender Association, Inc., (LAD) is conducting a child support help program on Saturday, April 18, 2015, at Detroit Public Library, 5201 Woodward Ave., in the “Friends Auditorium” from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.
There will be a brief information session about outreach programs to be held throughout the community in 2015, as well as an overview of our Michigan Legal Self Help Center. Participants will be able to meet one-on-one with family law attorneys. These volunteer attorneys will assist in completing motion packets and provide some legal direction on child support, parenting time, and custody issues.
Child support professionals will be on site to register participants on the MiChildSupport website and demonstrate how to check child support payments online.
This program is one in a series of free child support help programs supported by various community service agencies including Wayne County Head Start, JVS Jewish Vocational Service, Detroit Head Start Fatherhood Initiative, Wayne County Friend of the Court, Abundant Children and Family Services Agency, Wayne County Mediation Center, Wayne County Community College, and Young Fathers Standing United.
