Looking for a pro bono disability-rights advocate in Texas for a case with a deadline in October.

I'm facing a visa refusal appeal, 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 Texas 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 Corpus Christi 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.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Janet. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

    • hang in there, Janet. Hope this works out for you.

      • best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
