Legal fees for Wesley's wrongful-eviction defense in Riverside

A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Wesley can't afford the lawyer.

Riverside
I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for September, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,250. 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 a local immigrant rights clinic 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 $3,250 goes: • Filing and biometrics fees: $380 • Certified translations and document copies: $210 • Attorney retainer: $2,660 Every share and every dollar helps.
