I'm looking for a lawyer to help me in my civil action suit regarding a prison guard violating my right to a fair hearing while I was incarcerated. The attorney representing the guard has been uncooperative and biased, and I rejected a settlement agreement that favored the defendant. I want to proceed to trial and seek justice, but I need legal assistance. Can you help me find a pro bono or contingency-based lawyer?

What is the best course of action to complete the work and potentially seek a refund or legal action against the contractor?
