Does anyone know a tenant-rights lawyer willing to help for free? Ximena, Hamilton
Legal aid is overbooked; a few hours of professional help would change the outcome for Ximena.

I'm facing a benefits termination I'm appealing, with a hearing on November. 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 Waikato 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 Hamilton 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 hope life is good to you.

You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Sacramento this morning. All the best!
You're not alone. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Sukkur but we're thinking of you.
Thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Haarlem.
Wishing you peace, Ximena. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Ottawa.
