Wrongful-eviction defense: Juma needs $600 before the deadline
Help Juma cover the fees of a wrongful-eviction defense so He can stay with his family.
🇰🇪 Kakamega, Kakamega, Kenya903 views
I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for April, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $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 Kakamega 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.
Funds cover only the filing fees, translations and attorney retainer.
Where the $600 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $460
• Filing and biometrics fees: $80
• Certified translations and document copies: $20
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $40
Thanks for reading all this.

You're not alone, Juma. Shared it with a few friends. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings
This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Kampala.

Wishing you peace, Juma. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care.
Rooting for you, Juma. Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Mombasa.
