A few hours of tenant-rights lawyer time could save Fatma's home

Fatma is facing a benefits termination I'm appealing and can't afford a lawyer; a tenant-rights lawyer willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing a benefits termination I'm appealing, with a hearing on November. 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 tenant-rights lawyer licensed in Istanbul 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 Istanbul 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.

    Wishing you the best. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out

      Hope things get better soon, Fatma. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Campinas.

        Thinking of you, Fatma. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Ekurhuleni so I could bring a meal

          Sending strength, Fatma. Shared this with my family. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
