find a new way (self.Blind)
submitted by Blind_Insider
I am a Lawyer and when I lost my sight, no one wanted to employ me again. For a long time I thought I would never get a new job. I felt sad and desperate because I had pending payments. My problem was that I was on the wrong track, I wanted to continue working on something that I couldn't do anymore. So I started looking for other alternatives, I took a vocational course to find out what my other talents and skills were and so I started studying adaptive computing, not because I am a technology expert but because I really like writing and advising people on social networks. and for that he needed to learn to use a computer and a cell phone with screen readers. Sometimes it is necessary to turn the ship towards new horizons to reach a safe port. We must adapt to the changes and do what is necessary to move forward.

I know a few lawyers in the u.S. but I guess Mexico wouldn't provide the access you need.

Do you mind elaborating on what you couldn’t do as a lawyer? I was thinking of law school for awhile when I was younger.

Sure. In reality, it is not that I cannot continue litigating, but here in Mexico, where I live, people do not trust someone who is blind to carry out their trials. In addition, most courts are not adapted so that a blind person can move freely. It is rather a question that nobody requires my services, but if you can practice as a lawyer as long as it is a public agency and you have some contact at least here in my country
