A few hours of consumer-debt lawyer time could save Joaquín's home
Joaquín is facing a custody dispute and cannot afford a lawyer; a consumer-debt lawyer willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing a custody dispute, with a hearing on May. 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 Bogotá D.C. 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 Bogotá 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thinking of you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Praying for you. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Campinas.
sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Good luck, Joaquín. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
