I just need to be able to get my child support that is owed to me.  I supposedly make too much money for the state or any reduced rate legal programs to help me, but I have 4 children to support and I don't have the ability to pay a big retainer fee.  I am at my wits end. My ex-husband owes me over $30,000 in back support and he runs around care free all the time while I have to suffer.  I don't know what to do.  I can't even afford to buy my kids coats and mittens this year.  Everything is just closing in so fast.  I feel hopeless.

Don't get me wrong, I am not trying to get a handout, just some kind of help so I know what to do...

Ok you're right cuz i was just reading up on my paperwork they sent me. But look, if the father is so far behind in child support and you're not getting ANYTHING like me, then 34% of something is a lot better than nothing at all. Plus since he's so far behind, they try and collect interest from him, not just what he owes, but a lot more. I for one have nothing to lose in this deal, and i'm glad i read your page cuz right at this moment I am copying the stuff I need and signing away and I'm going to send it out tomorrow.

Support kids charge a fee of like $550 they don't charge a percentage. Thier money goes to them first,then anything after that comes to you. And what's $550 when you're not getting anything at all? And you don't have to pay out of pocket. You should look back into the program. You have nothing to lose and I know how the state programs work...THEY DON'T. They will not go out of their way to get your money but support kids will. I am in the process of applying for support kids so if and when anything happens I will let you know.

I tried support kids, they will take 34% of whatever they collect. He works under the table so it's not as if they're going to get a lump sum payment from him anyhow. If he did start to pay it would only be weekly payments and they'd be taking over one-third of that money...
