Why Won’t CASA Just Tell Me What To Do?

Only a lawyer who is working with you can give you legal advice.  Family Law CASA cannot give you advice about your rights, about what legal steps you should take or what you should do for the court.  Family Law CASA cannot interpret court orders for you or tell you what to if you or the other party does not follow the court orders.  This is why it is so important for you to try your best to talk with a lawyer of your own.

What is it called when you can't afford a lawyer?

When a court decides someone is "indigent" - with few assets and no funds to pay an attorney - generally either a private lawyer will be appointed by the court and paid with county funds, or a public defender program will be appointed to represent the person.
Your income will automatically qualify if you are in receipt of Income Support, income-based Jobseekers Allowance, income-based Employment and Support Allowance or Pension Guarantee Credit. You will also qualify if your disposable income does not exceed £733 per month.

What is a pro bono lawyer?

Pro bono, whose English translation of the well-known Latin phrase is “for the public good,” refers to professional services provided at no or very low cost. For attorneys, this familiar expression can stand for time away from billable duties, and it can be both inspiring and challenging.
To qualify for legal aid, you must: a) be a Singapore Citizen or Permanent Resident; and b) pass the Means and Merits Tests The Means Test determines your financial eligibility for legal aid based on the value of your annual household earnings and capital assets.
