Wrongful-eviction defense: Ceren needs $650 before the deadline
A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Ceren can't afford the lawyer.
🇹🇷 Bornova, İzmir, Türkiye254 views
I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for January, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $650. 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 $650 goes:
• Filing and biometrics fees: $100
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $45
• Attorney retainer: $505
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
Take care, Ceren. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Khon Kaen so I could bring a meal. Love from Abuja
take care, Ceren. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 14 people at work. Blessings.
