I filed internal EEO complaints and US EEOC charges against a state agency. The EEOC charge is still pending. I have already spent $15,000 on an attorney, have a very strong case and anticipate that a lawsuit is my only hope and the fees will likely be in the 6 digits.
I am considering opening a GoFundMe or similar account to help pay for an attorney but these sites require the name of the recipient and usually, in order to get people to help, there needs to be a description of the main concerns and events of the case. If I use my name and describe some aspects of the charges could this hurt my case? Would this be a bad idea? I'm currently reaching out to recommended attorneys about a contingency agreement but from what I have heard, lawyers won't listen or talk to you without a lot of money up front.
