🇸🇦 Riyadh, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia645 views
Rahma is facing a custody modification. The hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $1,300. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Rahma has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at the Riyadh Community Legal Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Rahma 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 $1,300 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $880
• Filing and biometrics fees: $210
• Certified translations and document copies: $100
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $110
Thanks for reading all this.

This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Hubballi.
Hope it all works out, Duha. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best.
I hope things turn around soon. Love from Kathmandu
Praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Santos.
You're not alone, Duha. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Riyadh
