Coffee and a Chat: A Lifeline for Families in Crisis
When family challenges arise, a listening ear and shared wisdom can make all the difference. At Held Law Firm, we hear heartbreaking stories from grandparents, aunts, uncles, stepparents, and other family members facing unexpected struggles:
"My son prioritizes fentanyl over his own children."
"My daughter’s fiancé becomes abusive when drunk, leaving my grandkids terrified."
"My teenager had a baby, and now we’re raising both. It’s overwhelming."
A Shared Burden is Lighter
Legal support can address courtroom battles, but sometimes you need more—a safe space to vent, connect, and share. Friends who’ve faced similar struggles can offer invaluable support, helping you avoid pain and find solutions. We cannot offer legal advice during our meets but we can share your experiences. As the saying goes, a shared load is a lighter load.
