  1. Hi
    I appreciate your assistance in supplying me with an Attorney who deals with child support. My friend’s child has Autism and is struggling to make ends meet…

    Any additional assistance in locating a free camp for her child who is 11 years old would be greatly appreciated as well.

    One more concern would be a strong Support group which has access to various Financial, Phycological Counselors and strong networking avenues to provide her with the best care for not only her son but for herself as well.

    Sincerely, God bless you, Thank you &
    Best Regards,

    Karen Semedo
