I need an appeal lawyer to represent me in a lawsuit filed in court while I was sick and unable to defend myself. They took advantage of my situation by lying to get the verdict to throw out my case, so I filed a ten million dollar lawsuit against them. They claimed in court that I did not follow up when they wanted me to meet with them, but I had an infection and had to be rushed to the hospital for major surgery. They also said I admitted I was to blame and careless, which I never did. I have the petition they presented in court, which is filled with untruths. I was injured in a Walmart store, and they tried to make it seem like I would just give up. I need a lawyer to represent me in this appeal. I believe they will settle out of court for frauding the system to gain prestige. Can you help me find a lawyer?
