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

Legal aid is overbooked; a few hours of professional help would change the outcome for Seyi.

Lagos
I'm facing wrongful dismissal after reporting unsafe conditions, with a hearing on March. 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 Lagos 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 Lagos 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
