A:
Finding an attorney to help you finish your lawsuit while facing homelessness can be challenging, but there are resources available that may assist you. Start by reaching out to legal aid organizations in your area. These organizations often provide free or low-cost legal services to those who are homeless or low-income, and they may have attorneys who can take on your case or offer guidance on how to proceed.
You can also try contacting local law schools, as many have legal clinics where law students, supervised by experienced attorneys, provide legal assistance to the community. This can be a valuable resource if you need help with paperwork or understanding the legal process.
Another option is to look for pro bono attorneys or volunteer lawyer programs, often run by local or state bar associations. These programs connect people in need with attorneys willing to provide services for free. Explain your situation clearly, emphasizing your need for help and your current circumstances.
