I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for August, 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 Petrópolis 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 $600 goes: • Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $70 • Attorney retainer: $450 • Certified translations and document copies: $80 Thank you so much.

  • reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Petrópolis.
