Good Morning,
I am reaching out to get assistance in Jackson County MO, to help pay my rent so that I am not evicted. I am not sure where to go for assistance as I am fairly new to this particular area.
My rent is 1360/month however with the late fee’s I’m looking at 1800. I really need some assistance as the fees go higher. If you could point me in the right direction I would great appreciate it.

Good morning,
I live in the North Stafford, VA area (22554). I've been trying to catch up on my bills and having a hard time doing so. Right now, my rent is past due and need to be paid by the 15th of June. The amount is $1475 plus a 10% late fee ($1622). I really could use assistance with this. My utility bill was past due and cut off as of today and I managed to get that taken care of. I tried to call Catholic Charities for assistance with the rent and fees, but they were unable to help. I do have a full time job and not getting public assistance from anywhere. If you could help find an organization to assist, my rent goes all to my landlord. I would greatly appreciate it.
My address is Stafford, VA 22554.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Anjanette

We are not really sure if there is anything you can do about the late fees. Maybe a lawyer in Indiana can help you contest them if they are illegal. Or they can talk to your landlord and lighting company about working out a payment plan. Also, if you were that seriously injured, you should even think about applying for disability, which the attorneys can help with too. Here is a listing of their services. http://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html ... and_f.html

Need help with this months rent. My rent is 520 but it keeps going up every day due to fees which will make it harder for me to pay my water and light utilities. I have been on a 40 hour weeks for about 4 months because I was injured at the job with a two broken leg bones...my wife is about to have another baby soon and we have Medicaid for our kids but I can't seem to catch up on my bills.

This is due to since I was off for two weeks and both workers comp checks came in very late which put me behind. Ever since then and now I’m afraid I will be evicted because of late payment with rent and...please help my family and I catch up. Also my car payment will be due soon as well and probably won't have enough for that either.
