A few hours of family-law attorney time could save Teresa's home

Looking for a pro bono family-law attorney in California for a case with a deadline in December.

I'm facing an unpaid wages claim, with a hearing on December. 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
