I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $1,950. 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 London Welcome 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 $1,950 goes: • Certified translations and document copies: $165 • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $75 • Attorney retainer: $1,710 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Comilla this morning. Love from Comilla.

        Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Bandung
