Hello my name is Kimberly and I’m asking this for my daughter who is a single mother of 3 beautiful girls ages 7, 3 & 2. My daughter is in the middle of a divorce and it’s getting ugly. Her husband who is an alcoholic and abusive hired an attorney to make things harder on my daughter because she went and applied for emergency temporary custody of their 3 girls and the judge granted it to her which made him furious therefore he hired an attorney. He knows my daughter doesn’t have money for an attorney cause she’s living in her own apartment working and taking care of her 3 daughters. The oldest daughter has Autism and my daughter has her in a school just for Autistic kids where she’s doing real good . My daughter took the time to research all the different schools to make sure she was in the best school for her because she wants her to succeed and have somewhat of a normal life and this was all my daughter’s doing. She loves her girls and wants nothing but the best for them. As do I they are my granddaughters. The reason my daughter is asking for emergency temporary custody is because the girls dad went over to my daughter’s place while the girls were there and pulled out a gun cocked it back and pointed it at her while he was arguing with her outside in the parking lot. My granddaughter was watching this through her bedroom window. He doesn’t take care of the girls like he should he’s just doing this to hurt my daughter. He won’t give them baths and the last time he had the girls my daughter called to see how they were doing and he wouldn’t let her talk to them and with this attorney that he has he’s asking for 4days out of the week to have them and he works those days so he’ll have his mom watch them. Now the girls don’t really know his mom because she chose not to be in their lives because they are half white and half Mexican and she doesn’t like my daughter because she’s Mexican. His own mother even testified against him because his other 2 kids that he has from another lady before he got with my daughter did not want to go over to their place anymore , this is while my daughter was still with him, cause he drinks all the time and agrees and fights with my daughter. So his baby momma took him to court to stop visits because the kids didn’t want to go over there anymore . So his own mother even testified against him and therefore the baby momma won her case. And now that my daughter is no longer with him she is back on his side helping him with this case just because she never liked my daughter because she’s Mexican. My daughter was with this man for almost 10yrs and in the beginning they were arguing cause he was drunk and had his gun pointing it at the 2 dogs they had and my daughter yelled at him to stop pointing it at them and he turned around and shot her in the foot she called me crying late at night telling me that she needed me to take her to the hospital cause he had just shot her in the foot and he wouldn’t take her to the hospital cause he was afraid of getting in trouble. All he thinks about is himself and my daughter deserves to have representation when she goes to court tomorrow. The attorney wants 1500 which is the retainer fee just to get started. My daughter has 1000 but that’s her rent money and I don’t want her to lose her place that she has gotten for herself and her daughters and I don’t have but 100 to my name and I live with my boyfriends family. An she desperately needs this attorney. So if you could please help her out we would be greatly appreciative. I don’t want him to take them girls away from her just because he was able to ask his dad for money for an attorney and my daughter couldn’t this would devastate not only the girls but my daughter and I as well being that I go over there to spend time with them per their request them girls love me cause I’ve been there their whole lives. Please help us and anything we can do to pay it forward we will do. Thank you for listening. May God Bless you !!!
