Fundraiser for Bevan Roberts' legal fees

Christchurch, Canterbury

Bevan Roberts and his friends decided in 2021 to do what a lot of people do, and go in on a house together. He was the sole title holder.

Unfortunately due to uncontrollable circumstances, Bevan got left holding the bag for a court case over the deposit for the property.

He's still the title holder but has been left with about 8000 dollars of legal fees, as well as a considerable amount of renovation work.

This fundraiser is to help him recoup the costs of this court case. It's not fair that he be financially hamstrung purely because he wanted to continue living in his own house.

Bevan is a stand up guy; he works hard and is patient. Ultimately, he's just trying to live the Kiwi dream; a place to call his own. He has given plenty of help to friends in need, and giving back would be most appreciated.

This is Bevan’s personal account of the emotional and financial consequences of the experience. He does not wish to assign blame or relitigate the outcome of past legal proceedings.
