I'm facing an unlawful eviction, 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 California 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 Los Angeles 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.

    hang in there, Juan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Ahmedabad but we're thinking of you.

    • keep going, Juan. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day

      • Hope it all works out, Juan. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Los Angeles.

        • Good luck. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

          • Thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Québec
