I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,950. I have been told by three legal-aid offices that their waiting list is longer than my deadline. I have all of my paperwork ready, and my caseworker at Amsterdam Welcome Centre has confirmed that my case is valid. If I miss the deadline I could lose my right to stay with my family and my job. My children were born here and this is the only home they know. I'll share any non-sensitive updates as the case moves along. Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer. Where the $2,950 goes: • Attorney retainer: $2,150 • Filing and biometrics fees: $420 • Certified translations and document copies: $220 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $160 With deep gratitude, Teun

  • Wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Pune donated after I showed her your page. God bless.

    • rooting for you, Teun. Hope you get there. After 19 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.

      • Good luck, Teun. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together.
