Q: How to find an attorney to represent me in a civil case (housing related, I was discriminated as a handicap owner)?
I was a new handicap homeowner in an association in Fairfax County VA. The association began discriminating against me when forced me to disclose that I was a handicap person and for a variety of unlawful reasons denied giving me parking permit so I could not park my car in the subdivision and after 9 months of having the unit vacant, I was finally forced to sell since I could not reason with them and find out why no parking permit under the law was not being issued for me. The case has a merit as I have consulted with few attorneys. I do not have money to pay hourly but I can pay contingency like 40/60. if you can take the case or refer me to a law school or probono att. please let me know. I do not want to contact legal aid and or HUS since I do not believe they can help and time is of the essence. where can I look for legal resources? thanks
A: To find a local attorney for your case, you should call the local Bar Association on the city/county in which you reside. Ask for the lawyer referral service.
