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

I'm facing wrongful dismissal after reporting unsafe conditions, with a hearing on July. 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 Oromia 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 Jimma 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.

You're not alone, Ruth. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
