The answer would be yes and as to how, aside from my criminal defense practice here in South Florida I am part of a group of attorneys that operate a nonprofit organization called “lawyers to the rescue.” One of our missions is to go into the Camillus house which is the main homeless shelter here in Miami And we conduct a free or what’s called a pro bono legal clinic where we have different lawyers that practice different types of law and we accommodate the legal needs of the homeless and take on their cases free of charge. We do this on a monthly basis and this has been going on now for about 11 years. It’s very fulfilling and the clients are very appreciative !

Dear Mr Castro,
As the local Business Person of the Year for 2020-2021 in the Miami area I want to state :
1) THANK YOU: to all the organizers , small businesses , voters, winners and participants . a sincere thank you to all of you that make this happen.
2) GO BACK TO MY MISSION STATEMENT, where I told all of you that my desire to win this award was to gain a spotlight on my ability as an attorney and small business in the community for over 30 years by giving other small businesses that may be struggling access to attorneys that may be able to answer their legal questions for free and without the need for an expensive legal consultation. Reach out to me directly and I will do all I can to assist you and get you in the right hands with my networking access to other lawyers
Thank you for your time and hard work in putting this together . I see that I’ve received several votes and if I were to be lucky enough to win it would give me an opportunity to further advance my idea and ability to help struggling small businesses gain access to free/pro bono or very low...

Thank you for your time and hard work in putting this together . I see that I’ve received several votes and if I were to be lucky enough to win it would give me an opportunity to further advance my idea and ability to help struggling small businesses gain access to free/pro bono or very low consultations with attorneys that could lend some advice and answer some legal questions without the business having to pay a large consultation fee. The idea came to me because I do this every month for the last 10 years for the homeless of our community with a pro bono legal clinic at the Camillus House through lawyers to the rescue, a nonprofit. With this horrible pandemic small businesses have taken a beating and being able to help them by getting answers to legal questions at no or very low cost is my goal and my way of using my 30+ years and connections in the legal field to give back to the community..
For me I find word-of-mouth to be the best advertising and marketing there is. It takes many years of hard work and getting excellent results for clients at a reasonable fee but when you do this day in and day out year in and year out it builds a client base of people who remember you and will...

For me I find word-of-mouth to be the best advertising and marketing there is. It takes many years of hard work and getting excellent results for clients at a reasonable fee but when you do this day in and day out year in and year out it builds a client base of people who remember you and will refer you to other people and recommend you. I also find good reviews to be very helpful. All of this can be done without sinking money into SEO or marketing. It’s not the only form, but I think it’s a great one!
You get what you pay for. I will tell clients that if their lawyer shopping based on price alone they will not hire me. With 33 years of experience I bring a lot to the table and I am not a bottom feeder. While my fees are reasonable and flexible they will not be the cheapest in the business and...

When dealing with any scam you must break the analysis down to whether it is fraud in the criminal sense or civil sense . Without going into too much detail, if it rises to the level of criminal fraud then it needs to be reported to law enforcement for possible arrest and criminal Prosecution .
If civil , then possibilities range from trying to resolve your shortcomings directly with the other party or engaging the services of a civil lawyer to pursue a civil claim in court. That avenue requires numerous considerations including the financial factor of legal fees .
Other middle of the road ideas can include posting some bad reviews to alert others as to what’s going on.....at least in your situation that may prompt the promoter to reach some type of a resolution with you in return for taking down the bad review.
Without digging into the details of your situation, but just looking at it on its face, it appears to be a civil fraud.
I hope this helps just a little bit ...

My advice is going to be a more general approach to your situation and less specific. You need to think out-of-the-box. I agree with the others to focus on your strong points and not your weaknesses. But I find the best form of marketing for my criminal law and real estate practice is word-of-mouth. Through social media I combine my personal life with my business life and as a result people reach out for me on a daily basis for both my areas of law and real estate and they trust me even though they’ve never met me. Turn your business social media into a business personal angle and start making and interacting with as many friends as you can through social media letting them know what you do.
I’m also going to share with you something which I’m a little uneasy stating but I’m going to be honest. I do a pro bono legal clinic at the homeless shelter every month here in Miami. While turning yourself around from homelessness is an absolutely phenomenal achievement and I praise you, there are some people who look down on the fact that you were homeless. It will give them a certain image such as that that I see when I enter my clinic. I’m going to suggest removing that part of your life from the social media marketing and let’s paint a picture that’s going to make people want to use your services and let’s paint a picture that makes it a reputable and valuable business and commodity that you can offer them. I hope you’re not offended by my advice as I just want to see you thrive and prosper !!
