I'm facing a custody dispute, 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 Minas Gerais 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 Belo Horizonte 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.

Hope it all works out. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Los Angeles so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Júlia. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings
Sending love, Júlia. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Bellevue this morning. Greetings from Bellevue.
