Virginia legal community allowed us to experience discrimination. My girlfriend suffers from abuse syndrome, bipolar disorder, depression, dyslexia and a tendency to say things backwards. Both the social service counselors and myself were trying to assist her in addressing her issues. I would provide documents identifying assets that could be used to support abuse, issues of medical incapacity and where documents could be found. I have watched my girlfriend hand documents that refuted the claims of opposition be dismissed, a memorable dismissal was with a pat on the hand and followed with a "professional courtesy" comment, at the time we assumed a "strategy". Later on when I attempted to address these "professionals" they would say that it was her case, even though I was footing the bills for their mistakes, bumbling, incompetence and avoidance. When these "professionals" tell me that it is the clients fault, I go back to when we asked the counselors whether they had been contacted by my girlfriends attorney and they said "no", they were expecting to be. One institution, the institution that handed out prescription medication without monitoring, that resulted in an event, were asked whether counsel contacted them, they said "no" - girlfriend was presumed guilty.

As a last attempt of addressing our issues I went to lawyers.com expecting to have a dialog that would provide an argument that I could accept. I will let the reader judge from the responses provided by these "professionals". Did learn about "cant", "clients fault" and "not fair". Imagine hiring an arbitrator to resolve an issue and then they start saying "I cant", "its your fault" or "it is not fair" - Golly Gee Whillikers.
