I’m a victim of domestic violence. What can I do if I need to receive public assistance, but do not want to seek child support?

If you or your child gets public assistance, the state will automatically seek child support from the other parent. However, if you are afraid that you or your child might be harmed by the other parent if a child support case is filed, you can ask for a “good cause exception” to this rule. For more information on this exception, visit the Legal Aid of West Virginia website or contact a lawyer.
