Wrongful-eviction defense: Vanessa needs $750 before the deadline

A wrongful-eviction defense deadline is approaching and Vanessa can't afford the lawyer.

I'm facing a wrongful-eviction defense. My hearing is scheduled for October, and the filing fees and the lawyer's retainer come to $750. 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 Vitória da Conquista 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. The money goes to the immigration attorney's trust account and the court filing office. I'll upload receipts with sensitive details removed. Where the $750 goes: • Certified translations and document copies: $45 • Filing and biometrics fees: $180 • Attorney retainer: $525 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

    • Rodrigo S. Zamora

      Sending good thoughts, Vanessa. This could happen to any of us.

      • Irma Wulan Halim

        best of luck, Vanessa. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best
