Donna -- I would suggest calling your local Bar Association - most of them have free Legal Aid/lawyer referral services. Please do not lie about anything with these people, even "little white lies" can backfire. These HEADS people sound like they have their heads up where the sun don't shine, so take the high road with them, be upfront and honest. You probably will have to pay a few more $$ for Lil Eli although probably can negotiate a compromise if you are honest with them, receipts, etc. Good luck.
