Help Lydia with wrongful-eviction defense filing and attorney fees
A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Lydia can't afford the lawyer.
Anywhere in the world742 views
Lydia is facing a wrongful-eviction defense. The hearing is scheduled for September, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $850. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Lydia has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Anaheim Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Lydia 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 $850 goes:
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $160
• Certified translations and document copies: $220
• Filing and biometrics fees: $470
I hope life is good to you.

Take care. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Aurangabad.
Stay strong, Nathan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours
wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Gazipur
looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 23 people at work. All the best.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 22 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
