A few hours of family-law attorney time could save Gashaw's home
Gashaw is facing an unlawful eviction and can't afford a lawyer; a family-law attorney willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing an unlawful eviction, with a hearing on January. 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 Addis Ababa 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 Addis Ababa 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 hope life is good to you.

So sorry you're going through this, Gashaw. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless
Thinking of you and your family, Gashaw. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Savar.

So sorry you're going through this, Gashaw. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Duque de Caxias.
