A few hours of family-law attorney time could save Sumaiya's home
Looking for a pro bono family-law attorney in Maharashtra for a case with a deadline in September.
🇮🇳 India428 views
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 Maharashtra 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 Pune 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope things get better soon, Sumaiya. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
So sorry you're going through this, Sumaiya. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Tema.
Wishing you the best, Sumaiya. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Arusha
