My mother asked me to lie to the police and wont stop badgering me about it.
Asked on Oct 11th, 2013 on Family Law - Washington
More details to this question:
Long story short my dad hit my mom and I called the police. The police talked to me and my brother and got statements and all that. Dad got taken to jail, was released 26 hrs later. But he's not allowed to see my mother, brother or I. But the last few days my mother has been asking me to lie to family services/the court/police and say I didn't see anything, I know that's illegal but she wont listen and wont stop badgering me. I was wondering if I can get a lawyer to help me pro-bono, or even if I qualify for a lawyer. Just want my mother to stop bribing, and badgering me and threatening me. By the way, I am 15.
some counties, like the one in which i practice, assign lawyers to children to represent them with child or family services cases. you should inquire, maybe the family services case worker can refer you to someone.
