Legal fees for Sneha's custody modification in Thiruvananthapuram
A custody modification deadline is approaching and Sneha can't afford the lawyer.
🇮🇳 Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India184 views
Sneha is facing a custody modification. The hearing is scheduled for May, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $500. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline.
Sneha has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at Thiruvananthapuram Welcome Centre has confirmed that the case is valid.
If the deadline is missed Sneha 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 $500 goes:
• Filing and biometrics fees: $80
• Attorney retainer: $380
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $40
With deep gratitude,
Dhanalakshmi

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sneha
you're not alone, Dhanalakshmi. Your post was clear and honest. I hope May is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Hope you get there. Love from Phuket
