I'm facing wrongful dismissal after reporting unsafe conditions, with a hearing on October. 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 England 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 Leicester 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

                Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from San Jose.

                • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 30 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
