Does anyone know a family-law attorney willing to help for free? Bianca, Petrópolis
Bianca is facing a benefits termination I'm appealing and can't afford a lawyer; a family-law attorney willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing a benefits termination I'm appealing, 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 family-law attorney licensed in Rio de Janeiro 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 Petrópolis 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.

Sending good thoughts, Bianca. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Newcastle upon Tyne.
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
