Does anyone know a consumer-debt lawyer willing to help for free? Jacob, Hamilton
Jacob is facing a custody dispute and can't afford a lawyer; a consumer-debt lawyer willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

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 consumer-debt lawyer licensed in Ontario 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 Hamilton 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Newcastle upon Tyne but we're thinking of you. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Jacob. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Lagos.
