🇧🇷 Brazil818 views
Gabriela is facing a wage-theft claim. The hearing is scheduled for March, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $1,050. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Gabriela has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at São Paulo Welcome Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Gabriela 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 $1,050 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $780
• Filing and biometrics fees: $220
• Certified translations and document copies: $45
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $5
Every share and every dollar helps.

Stay strong, Jéssica. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
