Pro bono disability-rights advocate needed for Henry's case in Lagos

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

Ikeja
I'm facing a debt-collection lawsuit I believe is invalid, with a hearing on June. 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 Lagos 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 Ikeja 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. Thank you for reading my story.

    Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

          Thinking of you, Henry. I hope things turn around soon. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
