I real estate lawyer took my case. And was gonna go and help me get my whole lot of my home and land but my father was playing a game and he was trying to get my daughter as well. And he victed me and then put me right back into the same home just so that he could go in front of the judge and said I had no. Stable trip at stable housing and then I was in contact with the state. Lawyer or the real estate lawyer who had been in contact with for almost 8 months. And he said. When my father in February found out I was married. He immediately went over and filed for an eviction. And I told lawyer and he said well. I know I would do your case on contingency. But I need a $* up front for the. Eviction so I gave him $* at * different times and what happened is he told he talked to me and everything, and when I showed up that day. It was 4 days prior to you, said he said he was sending. Jason Bennett to sit there. And when I showed up in court, the gentleman not only was ill-prepared but they found it twice. A file that laid and it was accepted. But they did not file the fees and may being intelligent. They didn't even have to file any money they just would had to file the paperwork which they did not send. My father was able to go in and get rid of possession. And I only had a week and mind you. I was still in post operative. I just had back surgery and it was quite an ordeal. And my father said he would think about it about not giving us about giving us more time. And he decided upon late Saturday. Evening that he wasn't going to do it so that we had Sunday and Monday and Tuesday and had to be up by Wednesday. I've been homeless ever since and I've had several other things. Go on, but this lawyer has been adamant that we can get back. What? I have put in with my back pay as far as. My back pay from disability. All that I had put in plus I got hurt having to move even with the doctors saying that I didn't mean to move out of my home. That was made disabled for me. I'm not quite sure what else you might need but this lawyer. I called today and his.
