I'm facing a benefits termination I'm appealing, 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 family-law attorney licensed in Missouri 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 Springfield 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Portland.
Thinking of you, Aaron. Your post was clear and honest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Wishing you peace, Aaron. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
