I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for July, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $1,100. 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 $1,100 goes: • Attorney retainer: $1,050 • Certified translations and document copies: $25 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $25 Thanks for reading all this.
