Meteryne Dinkins

Meteryne Dinkins is a Legal Aid DC client and the beneficiary of financial coaching services that were made available to her when she came to our office. Ms. Dinkins, a 72-year-old resident of Ward 4, came to us after having recently retired due to health problems. After receiving financial coaching from our CFPB partner, who worked in collaboration with attorneys in our Consumer and Public Benefits Units, Ms. Dinkins secured a loan modification to preserve ownership of her home and improved her financial circumstances in a multitude of other ways.
