Pro bono employment lawyer needed for Caleb's case in Ontario

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

I'm facing a visa refusal appeal, with a hearing on March. 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 employment lawyer licensed in Ontario 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 Mississauga 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
