Need Help Raising a $5,500 Attorney Retainer
Hi everyone,
I'm asking for help raising $5,500 for a criminal defense attorney retainer.
I need legal representation to protect my rights while dealing with an ongoing legal matter. After speaking with attorneys, I learned that having a lawyer before things progress is important, but the retainer is more than I can afford.
I also have a 4-month-old baby who needs me, and my priority is being there to care for my child while handling this situation responsibly. I'm doing everything I can to protect my future and provide stability for my family.
I've started a GoFundMe to try to raise the funds. Any amount, even a few dollars, brings me one step closer to hiring an attorney. If you're unable to donate, sharing my fundraiser would mean just as much.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any kindness or support you can offer.
