Legal fees for Abdul's wrongful-eviction defense in Jaipur
A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Abdul can't afford the lawyer.
🇮🇳 India1,312 views
Abdul is facing a wrongful-eviction defense. The hearing is scheduled for August, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $450. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Abdul 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 Abdul 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 $450 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $320
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $25
• Filing and biometrics fees: $105
Thanks for reading all this.

Rooting for you, Shima. Shared it with a few friends
Stay strong, Shima. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
Thinking of you, Shima. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
