Pro bono immigration lawyer needed for Leandro's case in São Paulo

Leandro is facing an unpaid wages claim and can't afford a lawyer; an immigration lawyer willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing an unpaid wages claim, 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 immigration lawyer licensed in São Paulo 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 Ribeirão Preto 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.

  • Hope it all works out, Leandro. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.

    • Stay strong. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Gondar so I could bring a meal.

      • Best of luck, Leandro. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

        • hang in there, Leandro. This could happen to any of us. Love from Cairo.

          • Best of luck, Leandro. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Leandro. Your post was clear and honest.

              • sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Mumbai.

                • thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Ottawa this morning. God bless.

                  • Best of luck, Leandro. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Ribeirão Preto
