Pro bono employment lawyer needed for Neil's case in Metro Manila
Legal aid is overbooked; a few hours of professional help would change the outcome for Neil.
🇵🇭 Metro Manila, Philippines297 views
I'm facing a benefits termination I'm appealing, with a hearing on October. 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 Metro Manila 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 Manila 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.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 12 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Manila.
