Help for an unemployed vet?

[JustAGuy]

Unemployed vet needs legal help regarding a civil/family matter in Colorado Springs. Long story short, ex-wife is suing (again), this time for an exorbitantly inflated amount from an unpaid debt that arose out of a divorce. Vet is unemployed and trying to go go school to get back on his feet but can't due to the continual harassment from his ex. In the last couple of years, he's had a heart attack, a stroke and was forced into bankruptcy due to layoff and incessant harassment in the courts from his ex.

Can anybody point to a legal resource in the Colorado Springs area who could at least talk to this guy or point him to an attorney who accepts pro bono work or low cost work.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks

Does the JAG provide those kinds of services to disabled vets? He's not retired, just disabled.

I'm not sure. Might be worth a phone call to find out.

No. The JAG is like the DA's office. They are NOT there to assist anybody but the .mil dept. they work for.

I wsh I coud offer a suggestion for an attorney but I can not. Good luck with the search.

If the harassing is that bad, he should put a restraing order on her and half of his problems will be solve cause the crazy nut will violate it and be in jail.

It's really just harassment in the courts although, he has been the victim of of domestic violence from her in the past. She has a severe personality disorder and will likely not give up easily. Unfortunately, I don't think a restraining order will help with the court harassment. She makes over 150K/year and he's on unemployment and can't even afford his heart meds and she's continually dreaming up law suits because she know's he can't afford an attorney. That's why the question about pro bono or low cost legal help.

Color me skeptical, but this sounds like a load of sheet. Any good lawyer, or public defender for that matter, should be able to tackle this easily.
