Nikhil is facing a wage-theft claim. The hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $350. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Nikhil has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at Bengaluru Welcome Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Nikhil 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 $350 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $210
• Filing and biometrics fees: $65
• Certified translations and document copies: $35
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $40
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Praying for you, Anjali. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Nikhil?
Thank you. If you're in Bengaluru I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
sending love. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
