A few hours of consumer-debt lawyer time could save Ximena's home
Legal aid is overbooked; a few hours of professional help would change the outcome for Ximena.
🇨🇴 Antioquia, Colombia1,200 views
I'm facing a debt-collection lawsuit I believe is invalid, with a hearing on July. 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 Antioquia 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 Medellín 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Take care, Ximena. Gave what I could, wish it was more
shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best
Thinking of you. Hope this works out for you. After 10 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Medellín.
