Does anyone know a tenant-rights lawyer willing to help for free? João, Guarulhos

Legal aid is overbooked; a few hours of professional help would change the outcome for João.

Guarulhos
I'm facing a visa refusal appeal, 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 tenant-rights lawyer licensed in São Paulo 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 Guarulhos 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.

        stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.

          Rooting for you, João. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.

            Wishing you the best. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Birmingham donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Birmingham
