Pro bono family-law attorney needed for Akoth's case in Mombasa
Legal aid is overbooked; a few hours of professional help would change the outcome for Akoth.

I'm facing an unpaid wages claim, 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 family-law attorney licensed in Mombasa 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 Mombasa 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, Akoth. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Lahore so I could bring a meal. All the best!
Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Aurora donated after I showed her your page. Love from Aurora.
Wishing you the best, Akoth. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Seattle
