Help Anita with wrongful-eviction defense filing and attorney fees
A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Anita can't afford the lawyer.
🇮🇳 India431 views
Anita is facing a wrongful-eviction defense. The hearing is scheduled for August, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $650. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Anita 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 Anita 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.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $650 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $470
• Filing and biometrics fees: $130
• Certified translations and document copies: $30
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $20
Thank you so much.

Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
hope it all works out, Ishita. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Ishita. Hope you get there. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Ishita. I hope things turn around soon.
Thanks for sharing this, Ishita. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
