Does anyone know a disability-rights advocate willing to help for free? Emily, Buffalo
Emily 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 August. 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 New York 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 Buffalo 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Buffalo.
