Hi, my name is Shaun. I’m raising funds to retain a family law attorney so I can ensure my son has a safe, stable, and consistent home. This is not something I ever imagined asking for help with. I’ve tried to handle things on my own, but the reality is that navigating family court without proper legal representation puts my son at risk of instability—and puts me at a disadvantage in advocating for what’s truly in his best interest.

My son has been clear about wanting stability and consistency. He has expressed fear and sadness about having two homes, and as his parent, it’s my responsibility to listen, protect, and act. My goal is not to punish anyone or create conflict—it’s to provide my child with a secure, loving environment where his emotional and physical needs come first. Legal fees are overwhelming, especially during a separation. Retaining a qualified attorney would allow me to advocate effectively for my son’s safety and well-being, navigate custody proceedings responsibly and lawfully, and ensure my son’s voice and needs are properly represented.

My son’s mother has been engaging in “transactional relationships” with other men for most of Malcolm’s life (and before). Her source of income is from sexual behavior online which has been filmed and documented in and around where my son lives and sleeps.

Every dollar raised will go directly toward attorney retainer fees, court costs, and related legal expenses. Any support—whether through donations or sharing this page—means more than I can express. Thank you for helping me stand up for my child and fight for the stability he deserves.

I never wanted to do this. Never imagined we’d be here. I’d give anything for it not to be this way.
