**Re: Crossed The Line***** Colette-pls find another lawyer.

Please find another lawyer.

My DH's Uncle is a lawyer. He does some civil rights cases.

He represented a high school boy who was stripped searched because I

teacher thought he had something stuffed down his pants. (He seemed

too big down there-I think you know what I mean)

The school called the students mother. The mother told them to wait

until she got there, they didn't.

Abuse does not have be to physical, and emotional abuse is just as

damaging.

Call every lawyer in your phone book if you have too.

I have never sued anyone, nor has anyone in my family. Many people

go to court over silly things. However, you need someone who give

you legal advise on a civil rights case. You may never end up in

court, and I hope you don't but you do need someone who can fight for

you and your son. Lawyers do sometime do this work for free it is

good public relations. It can get their name out there for the

additional business.

Take care,
