Does anyone know a disability-rights advocate willing to help for free? Juan, Manila

Juan is facing an unlawful eviction and can't afford a lawyer; a disability-rights advocate willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing an unlawful eviction, 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 disability-rights advocate licensed in Metro Manila 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 Manila 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Hope it all works out. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Coimbatore so I could bring a meal.

      sending good thoughts. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Los Angeles donated after I showed her your page. God bless.

            thinking of you, Juan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
