Custody modification: Karim needs $300 before the deadline
A custody modification deadline is approaching and Karim can't afford the lawyer.
🇮🇳 India1,026 views
Karim is facing a custody modification. The hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $300. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Karim has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at a local immigrant rights clinic has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Karim 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 $300 goes:
• Filing and biometrics fees: $80
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $10
• Attorney retainer: $210
With deep gratitude,
Imran
