I am a victim of a bed bug case looking for a lawyer who would represent me in court. It has been several years since the case was brought to court. I need a strong lawyer to represent me in court. I had two lawyers with this same case up until last month. But, they weren't good enough because they sounded like they all represented the other party, the landlord. They tried to push me instead of pushing the other party. Unfortunately, I know how a lawyer should act. The hard work has been done already in this case, and I have time until January next year, the next court date. A contingency fee agreement is preferred. If you are in good moral standing and willing to help me in this case, please text me with "Bed Bug." Thank you.
