I'm facing a wage-theft claim. My hearing is scheduled for August, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $300. 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 $300 goes:
• Certified translations and document copies: $65
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $20
• Filing and biometrics fees: $215
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in San Jose donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this, Óscar. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
