Looking for a lawyer who will do pro bono work for a case of high profile criminal. Case is in Rock Island, IL

The case affects the children of two women, one in which the child's mother was seriously injured. The other women were charged and is seeking the assistance of a lawyer who specializes in this type of criminal. He became the media. And the woman is currently unemployed.

Good news, the woman may be entitled to a free public defender. The judge will probably ask if she has a lawyer at his hearing next. You must be said that he can not afford it and ask the public defender to be named. The judge in May to ask a few questions about your situation financial, or you can ask him to fill out a form with this information (the form will be in the courtroom). IMHO, public defenders are very good lawyers who are doing the best they can with limited resources. You can contact the PD at Rock Island (309) 558-3530. If the woman does not qualify for a public defender will most likely come with money to pay for a lawyer. Rarely for lawyers to do pro bono criminal cases. You can try calling the Prairie State to see if you can refer to yourself (Prairie State not criminal, civil only). Their number is (309) 794-1328. It can also try the Rock Island County Bar Association to see if you can reference. I could not find a number for that Andicha but the president is Stephen and his office is (309) 788-9337. A private attorney will probably ask for full payment in advance. The most loans the family or take a second mortgage to get it if they have no savings to fall back.
