Wrongful-eviction defense: Suresh needs $4,100 before the deadline
A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Suresh cannot afford the lawyer.
🇺🇸 Florida, United States1,157 views
I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for November, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $4,100. 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 Tallahassee 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 $4,100 goes:
• Attorney retainer: $2,950
• Filing and biometrics fees: $900
• Certified translations and document copies: $135
• Court-appointed interpreter and travel: $115
Thank you so much.

Hang in there, Suresh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Tallahassee
Take care, Suresh. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Coventry.
Wishing you peace, Suresh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Tallahassee.
