Oliver is facing a wrongful-eviction defense. The hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $2,650. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Oliver has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at London Welcome Centre has confirmed that the case is valid. If the deadline is missed Oliver 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 $2,650 goes: • Attorney retainer: $1,750 • Filing and biometrics fees: $720 • Certified translations and document copies: $115 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $65 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Emma
