It seems you're facing challenges in finding the right legal assistance for enforcing child support. You might want to consider contacting local legal aid services again or checking if there are any pro bono family law attorneys who can assist with your case. Also, you could explore options like a "self-help" center at your local court for guidance on filing a complaint for contempt. Would you like more information on how to find these resources?
The lawyer that represents my ex-wife lies. He has lied to the court directly. The lawyers that I have hired in the past have only done the minimum amount and did not stand up for my interests. She has taken me to court 12x and always finds favor with the judge. I've used "self-help" because I was required to appear in court even though my lawyer dropped me as a client at the last minute b/c he changed occupations. I had to represent myself. It was traumatic and it was quite an unfair match between myself and an older well-seasoned lawyer.
