Help Mick with wage-theft claim filing and attorney fees
A wage-theft claim deadline is approaching and Mick can't afford the lawyer.
🇮🇪 Cork, Munster, Ireland2,269 views
Mick is facing a wage-theft claim. The hearing is scheduled for December, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,600. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Mick has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Cork Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Mick 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 $3,600 goes:
• Filing and biometrics fees: $330
• Attorney retainer: $3,200
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $70
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

you're not alone, Kathleen. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together.
good luck, Kathleen. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless.
Hope it all works out, Kathleen. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out
Sending love, Kathleen. This could happen to any of us. God bless
