Donate to help with legal fees

Donation protected
Dear Family and Friends,

I'm reaching out to you because I find myself in a situation that requires your support, both emotionally and financially. With a heavy heart and deep sense of urgency, I've created this GoFundMe account to raise funds for legal fees associated with gaining primary custody of my precious, almost 3-year-old daughter, Skye Lola Fields. Please consider sharing this campaign within your network (# of donors is often the key to reaching goals vs. size of donations). However, I ask that you do not share this information on social media due to the sensitive nature of this situation.

As many of you know, the mother of my child struggles with Borderline Personality Disorder. Over the years her condition has continued to worsen and she now has a history of refusing treatment. Despite my best efforts to support her, her recent actions have jeopardized not only my safety but also the safety of our beloved daughter. 

I am fully aware that the road ahead is steep, both emotionally and financially. The legal fees required for this custody battle are difficult to estimate, but I need to secure funds as soon as possible. Future court hearings will demand further financial support.

I live in Atlanta, Georgia, and I am doing everything in my power to hold onto my job. Unfortunately, I continue to battle Sciatica, a condition that limits the type of work I can pursue. This makes the financial burden even heavier. 

Every contribution, regardless of its size, will make a significant impact on our lives. I understand that times are tough for everyone, and I wouldn't ask for your help if it weren't absolutely necessary. I am reaching out to you, my family and friends, because I believe in the power of our loved ones to come together in times of need.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I want to leave you with this final message: I am fully committed to the welbeing of my daughter and doing everything in my power to ensure a bright future for her. She is my life, my sunshine, and my purpose. 

If you have any questions or want more information please don’t hesitate to contact me.

 With deep gratitude and humility, 

Jake Fields
