Paris
I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for May, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,000. 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 the Paris Community Legal 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 $2,000 goes: • Filing and biometrics fees: $610 • Attorney retainer: $1,250 • Certified translations and document copies: $140 I hope life is good to you.

  • praying for you, Bintou. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together.

      Hang in there, Bintou. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 14 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.

      • Hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Paris.
