Looking for a pro bono family-law attorney in West Bengal for a case with a deadline in October.

I'm facing a benefits termination I'm appealing, 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 family-law attorney licensed in West Bengal 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 Siliguri 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    • Yogita ShethOwnerAnswer

      Weekends are easiest but I'm flexible, just say which days you can do.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Yogita. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Columbia.
