Wage-theft claim: Noor needs $3,600 before the deadline

Noor needs $3,600 for filing fees and representation in a wage-theft claim before the November deadline.

The Hague
I'm facing a wage-theft claim. My hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $3,600. 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 the The Hague Community Legal Centre 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. 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 $3,600 goes: • Attorney retainer: $2,800 • Filing and biometrics fees: $510 • Certified translations and document copies: $195 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $95 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Noor

  1. Update from The Hague: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 34% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 25% funded and I made the first payment toward filing and biometrics fees.
