Help Randall with wage-theft claim filing and attorney fees

A wage-theft claim deadline is approaching and Randall can't afford the lawyer.

Randall is facing a wage-theft claim. The hearing is scheduled for February, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,100. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Randall 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 Randall 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 $3,100 goes: • Attorney retainer: $2,550 • Filing and biometrics fees: $300 • Certified translations and document copies: $75 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $175 Every share and every dollar helps. - Lillian

        Hang in there, Lillian. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
