Appeal deadline questions after an unemployment denial, production planner here

I was told my separation was for misconduct, which is not what happened. There are 17 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. 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.
