Q: How do I obtain a pro bono attorney for an appeal with the Georgia court of appeals?
My motion to suppress was denied but it shouldn't have based on Georgia and federal law
A:
A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for a week. You could search under legal aid and pro bono-related entities. Finding pro bono counsel could depend on the nature of the matter - organizations that offer their services in this area tend to apply guidelines in limiting the scope of their assistance to matters involving financially distressed clients and certain types of cases. You could check if the State Bar of Georgia has any resources that might be helpful. Good luck
