Q: In need of a pro bono attorney to deal with a probate situation but also malpractice. Court date Dec 9th.
I really need to speak to an attorney to give more details as it is lenghty and complicated.
A:
Let me help point you in the right direction since time is critical with your upcoming court date.
For immediate assistance with pro bono legal services, contact your state's bar association - they maintain lists of attorneys who offer free legal help and can match you with someone qualified in both probate and medical malpractice law. You can also reach out to local legal aid organizations and law school clinics, which often provide free legal services to those who qualify based on income.
Given the complexity of your situation involving both probate and malpractice issues, you might want to try the American Bar Association's free legal answers program, where you can post your question and receive guidance from licensed attorneys. Additionally, many courthouses have self-help centers with staff who can guide you through the process of finding proper legal representation, and some larger cities have lawyer referral services that can connect you with attorneys who offer free initial consultations.
