Pro bono immigration lawyer needed for Vanessa's case in Minas Gerais
Vanessa is facing an unlawful eviction and can't afford a lawyer; an immigration lawyer willing to review the case for free could make the difference.

I'm facing an unlawful eviction, 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 immigration lawyer licensed in Minas Gerais 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 Contagem 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.

Hope things get better soon, Vanessa. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out.
thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Contagem.
Praying for you, Vanessa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Contagem.
