Appeal deadline questions after an unemployment denial - 12 months and counting

I got a denial letter last week saying I left my job voluntarily, but I was let go as an office manager. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. My employer's version of events does not match mine, and I have emails that show it. Should I ask someone for free legal help?

I printed my emails in order and wrote a one-page timeline. The hearing officer kept going back to it.

Legal aid offices and some workforce centres help with unemployment hearings at no cost. A call is worth it.
