Legal Aid for a Young Single Mother

Donation protected
Hi everyone, I am raising legal funds for a 20 year old mother. The mother is a victim of domestic abuse and sexual assault. Her abuser recently filed for custody of the baby, and she has a long, uphill court battle to go. In addition to working two jobs, the mother is a full time college student. Her abuser is a much older man with the resources to afford a very skilled lawyer. She really needs an experienced and reputable lawyer to best prepare her to fight for her son. Any support would be greatly appreciated. 

Through the sexual assault, the mother conceived a beautiful little boy. He was born 8 weeks early, and the mother exhausted all of her savings to cover his medical bills. He is now home from the NICU and thriving. The baby is truly a blessing through all of the trauma and abuse the father put her through.
