Family Law Legal Assistance

America Family Law Center strives to provide family law help and assistance to individuals needing help resolving various family situations.   America Family Law Center is recognized as the leading, most advanced, and premier provider of Assisted Pro Se services. Many situations involve family law and parental rights. The organization’s primary focus is on children and their relationships with their parents.  Understanding how to navigate a divorce, child custody, child visitation, child support, and parental rights can be overwhelming.  We are here to help.

|

The organization is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization. Its mission is rooted in the belief that children should have a loving relationship with both parents.  Loving relationships between children and parents can continue after divorce or separation.  When children are parented safely and lovingly by both parents, our society and communities will be better off.

When America Family Law Center was founded, it was modeled using the same guiding principles fundamental to the American Bar Association (ABA) Standard for the Provision of Civil Legal Aid. America Family Law Center tracks closely with the ABA on limited-scope representation (see ABA Standard 3.4), legal advice (see ABA Standard 3.4-1 & 3.4-2), and assistance to pro se or self-represented litigants (see ABA Standard 3.5) in family law matters and incorporates this with the effective use of technology (see ABA Standard 2.10).

|

America Family Law Center desires to resolve as many situations as possible in a collaborative manner without litigation or court involvement.

|

America Family Law Center has been serving clients for well over a decade with its Assisted Pro Se service, with clients residing in all 50 states. Leveraging advanced technology, America Family Law Center can provide services to people virtually, regardless of location, from the comfort and privacy of their homes via their phones. Trekking to the courthouse or law library to use a public computer kiosk that may or may not be available or working is unnecessary and wasteful.

|

America Family Law Center encourages those who qualify for and are granted access to free legal assistance from another legal aid organization or law firm to take advantage of that free assistance. America Family Law Center encourages those who have the money to hire a full-service attorney in a traditional manner to do so. America Family Law Center is here to assist those pro-se and self-represented litigants in family law cases who do not get free legal aid and cannot afford to pay a traditional full-service attorney thousands of dollars, those in the Justice Gap, with its Assisted Pro Se service.
