Help Lisa with wrongful-eviction defense filing and attorney fees
A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Lisa can't afford the lawyer.
🇳🇱 Netherlands1,907 views
Lisa is facing a wrongful-eviction defense. The hearing is scheduled for September, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,650. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Lisa 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 Lisa 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 $3,650 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $2,650
• Filing and biometrics fees: $700
• Certified translations and document copies: $185
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $115
Thank you for reading my story.
