Help Dominique Klinger Secure a Stable Future for His Girls

Hello,

My name is Dominique Klinger. I am a retired Marine Corps veteran and a father to three beautiful girls named Nika, Rinley, and Ascha. Recently, I was awarded temporary sole custody of all three children as part of an ongoing (3-year) divorce. But my fight never stops. Through 3 years, I have attempted many times to settle within my divorce for the sake of the children and to keep the cost of lawyer fees down, but all of my efforts have failed time and time again. As of right now, the custody split has become a distant issue in the debate.

Our current issue keeping me in court and unable to live my life as a father is strictly based on money. Due to this ongoing issue, I am currently behind over $5,000 to our Guardian Ad Litem and over $6,000 to my current lawyer who has been fighting hard while making next to nothing for their services but cannot continue working on the only $250 a month I can currently pay (my retainer ran out almost a year ago). With more court days approaching and my ex-wife now seeking her 5th lawyer in the matter, my court fees will only continue to mount. As a veteran and hardworking citizen, this is something I have never had to tackle on my own and I am drowning. I work a steady job making decent money, I pay all of my bills on time and I never skip on my taxes. But as days go on the fears also continue to mount. I admittedly am drowning and am in desperate need of assistance paying my lawyer fees so I can finally finish the fight and give my family a life they deserve. Should you need proof of my situation the court dockets are public access via “casenet”, a Missouri-based online source for court documents. My case number is 22CY-CV02461. Anything truly helps and is always greatly appreciated.
