I'm facing a custody modification. My hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $4,000. 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 Fresno 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 $4,000 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $2,850
• Filing and biometrics fees: $880
• Certified translations and document copies: $200
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $70
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Sending strength, Maverick. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Piraeus but we're thinking of you.
Good luck, Maverick. Your post was clear and honest. God bless
Sending strength, Maverick. Shared it with a few friends.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Fresno.
gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Fresno
Shared this with my family. We're a small family in New Delhi but we're thinking of you. All the best.
