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

I'm facing a custody dispute, 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 family-law attorney licensed in Victoria 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 Geelong 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

You're not alone, Amelia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
Hope you get there. Thinking of Geelong.
Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Savar!
Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up.
