A few hours of consumer-debt lawyer time could save Jacob's home

Looking for a pro bono consumer-debt lawyer in England for a case with a deadline in November.

I'm facing a benefits termination I'm appealing, with a hearing on November. I earn too much to qualify for legal aid on paper, but not nearly enough to pay a lawyer's retainer. I'm looking for a qualified consumer-debt lawyer licensed in England who might be able to review my documents, prepare me for the hearing, or take the case pro bono or on a reduced fee. I've organized my documents chronologically, and I'll share them with the lawyer who agrees to help. I can travel to your office in London or meet online. I understand that the time of a lawyer is valuable, and I'm deeply grateful for any help or for suggestions of organizations that could assist. Thanks for being kind about this.

                  Take care, Jacob. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of London.

                      take care, Jacob. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

                            Hope it all works out, Jacob. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
