Veronica needs immediate assistance with filing for divorce, assisting with child custody orders and getting a permanent protective order. Her husband, Oscar Valencia, is charged with murder. He shot and killed the man that Veronica was confiding in and who was helping her to leave the marriage. During the investigation a GPS device was discovered on Veronica's vehicle that Oscar had been tracking her with. He shot the victim in front of Veronica. Veronica is having a very rough time and will need emotional support also. She is fearful for her and her childrens lives.

I was contacted yesterday by a woman I have known for many years. She has been a domestic violence victim in the past and a victim of the criminal justice system as well. She is finally trying to break free from him after about 20 years. They are not currently living together and she recently filed with the AG’s office for child support. He has said in the past that he would rather relinquish his parental rights than to pay child support. She’s working two jobs to try to make ends meet for her and her kids.

Applicant is a SA Victim and has a unique set of facts.

Client was referred to LSLA for a divorce case pending in Harris Co and a separate OAG case pending in Harris Co.

LSLA spoke and advised her but she wants to file her divorce in Hidalgo Co.

Erica is the mother of a child victim in case 19-10-14541 against Jesse King. Erica is having some custodial issues with the father of the child due to this crime occurring. She is needing family law advice/representation. She also may need assistance with Crime Victims Compensation ( I am sending in her application today with Presumptive Eligibility- but she may need future assistance as she plans to claim for lost wages and relocation expenses). She moved due to the crime so the defendant could not find them and she left her job to care for her child due to the crime.
