Help Rosa with wrongful-eviction defense filing and attorney fees

A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Rosa can't afford the lawyer.

Rosa is facing a wrongful-eviction defense. The hearing is scheduled for August, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $1,650. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Rosa has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the San Diego Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid. If the deadline is missed Rosa 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 $1,650 goes: • Attorney retainer: $1,250 • Certified translations and document copies: $270 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $130 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

        Is there anything that isn't money that would help Rosa?

            thinking of you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care
