Mama Mandy Needs a Legal Eagle
Donation protected
I have been a close friend of Mandy and Zach for many years. I would like to share a little about their family so that you may know their story better.
About ten months ago, Mandy's world came crashing down around her when her husband, Zach, of sixteen years told her he wanted a divorce. She was hopeful that he would change his mind and keep their family together, but he retained an attorney and filed for divorce in March.
Mandy is a wonderful mom of 4, but her first daughter sadly passed away during delivery. There are no words to adequately describe the strength and perseverance that I have seen in Mandy. Two years later they had their second baby girl who is now a vibrant 5 year old. Then 2 years later Zach and Mandy received word that one of Zach's family members was having a set of twins that were in need of a home. Being the most open hearted, ever giving person I know, Mandy was beyond happy to foster and then adopt these spunky and smart twins, giving them the loving home they deserve. The couple chose to have Mandy stay at home to care for their 3 little ones for the past 5 years. With an unexpected divorce, Mandy is now finding herself without money in her name. She is in need of financial help to pay legal fees.
The remaining attorney retainer fee due 7/3/20 is $2750
Expected court fees are for hearings regarding child & spousal support, custody/parenting time, and legal decision making, and are expected to cost up to $9000.
The attorneys will accept monthly payments, but are expecting to need $4500 fairly soon to cover expenses for July and August.
Mandy is contributing to her legal fees through borrowing from family, her coronavirus stimulus check, and using credit cards, but she needs as much quick help as she can get while she tries to get her family stable and on their feet.
