Custody modification: Salvador needs $400 before the deadline
Salvador needs $400 for filing fees and representation in a custody modification before the May deadline.

I'm facing a custody modification. My hearing is scheduled for May, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $400. I have been told by three legal-aid offices that their waiting list is longer than my deadline.
I have all of my paperwork ready, and my caseworker at the Coyoacán Community Legal Centre has confirmed that my case is valid.
If I miss the deadline I could lose my right to stay with my family and my job. My children were born here and this is the only home they know.
I'll share any non-sensitive updates as the case moves along.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $400 goes:
• Filing and biometrics fees: $270
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $35
• Certified translations and document copies: $95
Thanks for being kind about this.
