A few hours of consumer-debt lawyer time could save Kathleen's home
Kathleen is facing a custody dispute and can't 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 September. 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 Negros Occidental 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 Bacolod 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.
Glad we found this place.

Keep going, Kathleen. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. God bless.
Sending good thoughts, Kathleen. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Fresno but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Fresno.
thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Dwarka this morning.
rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Bacolod.
best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Hope it all works out, Kathleen. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Bacolod
So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings!
Hope you get there. After 16 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
