| My experience with Legal Services (via Utah Legal Services and
their associates, Legal Center for Victims of Domestic Violence)
shows why Legal Services Corporation should be unfunded. |
| Given this level of scrutiny, Legal Services lawyers have generally been
adept at hewing to the maze of rules with which political opponents have
circumscribed their activities when efforts to pull the budget plug
failed. Its a bit surprising that employees of North Carolinas
Farmworkers Legal Services were caught earlier this year in Mexico,
counseling migrant laborers contrary to their own agencys regulations.
The rules say non-citizens can only be helped on American soil. |
| I called and asked them for help--they said I earned too much.
I said yes, my gross is $31K, but after child support and taxes,
my net was a third of that (but since the kids dont live with
me, then the formula would still have me be too rich for them
to help). But besides, they said, since youre ex-wife is
already being assisted by us, it would be a conflict of interest
if any attorney associated with Legal Services anywhere were to
help you. In the next breath they admitted that Legal Services
was the only publicly funded agency that helps low-income people
with legal issues. So, once theyre helping a woman whos making
false allegations, theres no help for the accused. Thats justice? |
