Custody modification: Baptiste needs $2,650 before the deadline

Baptiste is facing a custody modification. The hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,650. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Baptiste has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Rennes Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid. If the deadline is missed Baptiste could lose the right to stay with the family and the job. The children were born here and this is the only home they know. The money goes to the immigration attorney's trust account and the court filing office. I'll upload receipts with sensitive details removed. Where the $2,650 goes: • Attorney retainer: $1,500 • Filing and biometrics fees: $700 • Certified translations and document copies: $270 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $180 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
