If you read the post below, you will see that I’m really angry at Wal-Mart for effectively cutting the pay and worsening the working conditions of already put-upon workers. I thought about it, and the best think I can do is offer my time to Wal-Mart workers for free. If you are a Wal-Mart worker or immediate family member, from now until the end of the year, I will give you a free one-hour attorney office conference at no charge. What you use it for is largely up to you. I’m hoping you use it to keep debt collectors at bay or to work through another consumer problem like a bad used car deal.
Just call my office at 317-662-4529 and mention that you are a Wal-Mart worker and I will schedule you in. Because I only have a finite amount of time, I reserve to cap the offer to 30 callers. I hope to schedule people through the end of the 2014.
I challenge other NACA attorneys to do the same or something similar. In truth, I know that NACA attorneys already spend most of their time dealing with the problems of low-income individuals. Still, I think we can do more in the way of outreach to specific groups, and this is as good a place to start as any.
