Legal fees for Valentina's family reunification petition in Ciudad de México

Ciudad de México
Valentina is facing a family reunification petition. The hearing is scheduled for May, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $750. Three legal-aid offices have said their waiting lists are longer than the deadline. Valentina has all the paperwork ready, and a caseworker at a local immigrant rights clinic has confirmed that the case is valid. If the deadline is missed Valentina 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. The money goes to the immigration attorney's trust account and the court filing office. I'll upload receipts with sensitive details removed. Where the $750 goes: • Attorney retainer: $540 • Certified translations and document copies: $90 • Filing and biometrics fees: $120 Glad we found this place.
