A few hours of disability-rights advocate time could save Isla's home

Isla is facing an unpaid wages claim and cannot afford a lawyer; a disability-rights advocate willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing an unpaid wages claim, with a hearing on October. 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 disability-rights advocate licensed in Michigan 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 Grand Rapids 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
